Has anyone else's 13 month old had chicken pox yet?

Question

I'm curious! Anyone else's Jan 2019 baby had chicken pox yet? My sons just got over it. Came as a shock to me having them so early 😱

Answer

No, the vaccine for it is on the child vaccination schedule in my country so my daughter won't get it at all. Good luck with your bub

Answer

No, both of my kids were vaccinated for it. Back when I was a kid, the vaccine wasn’t on the regular schedule so I got them when I was like 6

Answer

I got chicken pox around that age! The day I was supposed to go in and get the vaccination I woke up with them🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

My son had a vaccine on 1/17. I worry about him not getting them at all though. I heard the older you are when you get them, the worse/more dangerous if can be.

Answer

My kids are both vaccinated but my youngest brother caught it from me and my other brother when he was less than a month old. Was pretty awful for all of us (and it’s dangerous for young babies), so very thankful for the vaccine that my kids will never experience it!

Answer

My country does not give the vaccine and my babe contracted varicelle at just 6 months old. It was AWFUL and he was hospitalised for three weeks.
