I was told, after the twins were born, that since I had chicken pox already
my babies would be immune to it if I was breastfeeding and from immunity
acquired during gestation. I was inquiring because my 3-yr-old had chicken
pox. Well, my wonderful little seven-week-old 36-weekers on apnea monitors
got chicken pox. About 30 spots a piece. Yes, i did count them! jarrid has a
scar on his thigh to this day from the first one and is one way to tell them
apart in a pinch. So much for my immunity protecting my babies. They did
seem to do alright overall.
