Sigh... Kivi has chickenpox. She was vaccinated around her first
birthday for varicella, but she, and at least one other child (also
vaccinated) at her daycare have chickenpox.

IIRC you're pregnant aren't you? You'd better get yourself checked
out with some kind of medical person, there is a risk to your baby if
you are exposed to chickenpox.



I was told when my daughter had a "breakthrough" case of chickenpox that she
wasn't contagious and they never made her stay home from school since they
knew she'd been vaccinated (she was 4 but had been vaccinated at 1 or
whenever it's recommended.) She had very few spots, just on her trunk, and
they didn't seem to bother her. They went away in about a week or so.
