Crap!
Just got a call from my dad. I sent my youngest down with my parents last week so that I could get some packing done for our move. Looks like the little squeaker has chicken pox!

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm 18 fucking weeks pregnant, I haven't seen my baby for over a week now and looks like I won't be able to spend Christmas with her!

Can life get any fucking worse?

&$%@ !@$#@%

2. Ouch.
I'm sorry. That really sucks. I think it is best for you, though, to keep away from a sick kid.

Congrats on the upcoming new one, though... :D :D

3. Have YOU had chicken pox?
Because if you have, being around your little one won't harm the baby.

Check with your OB to be sure, but you should be fine.

5. Pretty sure I had...
but I may be mistaken. Looks like I'm going to have to take a test.

6. The titre will indicate whether or not you did.
and if you have had it, your baby should be fine.

Congrats on the impending arrival.

8. Not so sure. I got them twice.


Once as a kid, again in my mid-20s.


Be careful!

And good luck.

7. Life would most definitely be worse....
...if you had the chicken pox.
