I doubt you havfe chicken pox, USUALLY once exposed your body becomes immune...but you say you've had it 2X. Call your doctor if you are concerned...Chicken Pox during pregnancy is very bad (at least I think) for the baby.

Call your doctor, one of the first blood tests I had checked to see if I had immunity to chicken pox, it may be a routine test in your area as well. If not it is just a simple blood test.
You may be getting PUPPPS which is a common skin condition in pregnancy in which you get red bumps and sometimes a rash, usually on the arms, chest and belly. Completely harmless as it's just a reaction to the hormones in your system.
By all means though, call the doctor and talk about your concerns. Always best to be safe than sorry!

If the sore doesnt look like a little blister then i wouldnt worry to much about the chicken pox especially since you have already had them! when i was pregnant with my 1st and 4th kids i got a horrible case of itch on my belly!!! i scratched until i couldnt scratch anymore! then in turn caused me to get a rash and i'm am sorry to say that I didnt find anything to help my pain, not to say that there isnt anything out there but I just didnt find it! once you stop paying attention to it it will go away like mine!

Rashes can be a sign of some serious problems and they could be nothing. I would call the doc right away and get it checked out!

Having chicken pox more than once is very very uncommon. SO for you to have it 3 times....pshhhhh prob not.
