Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi everyone, One of my friends daughter has the chicken pox. Now my six kids haven't had it yet but they have been sick pretty non stop since september( and no they haven't had any vaccines) right now the baby is getting over a nasty cold/cough and most or all of the others have a cough/cold as well. Now my question is would you expose your kids to this with a cold/cough that they are already trying to fight off? Or would this just be asking for trouble. Thanks in advance.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 No, I wouldn't. If it happens, you'll deal with it, but I wouldn't go out of my way if it's been that long since the house has been a healthy one. There's time.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Winnie, Thanks for your response. That was my gut instinct as well. Debbie > > No, I wouldn't.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Sure thing--I was in a similar situation last fall with my 8-yr-old. He's generally healthy, but has had a few bouts of respiratory problems/pneumonia and hives in the past year. So I really felt he needed some more time to build up his immune system. Would have been nice to get it out of the way, though... Winnie ? about Chicken Pox > > Vaccinations > > > > > Hi everyone, > > > One of my friends daughter has the chicken pox.
