Can I bring my DD around other children?

My DD just had the MMR vaccine 10 days ago. Today, she broke out in little hives; anticipated side effect of the vaccine. Does this mean that I cannot bring her around other toddlers? We are planning on going to a holiday party with at least 6 other LO's and I want to be responsible. She doesn't have a fever. Just wondering what you would do (besides call the pedi which I am going to do right now)

TIA!
And then there were three...

    I agree with above poster but you can call pedi to double check.

    Yes the MMR is a live virus vaccine and can SHED. Did you read the vaccine insert? I think it can shed up to 28 days after (not sure about the exact time frame). The vaccine manufacturer website and CDC should also have the info.

    Thank you for your responses! My pedi said that we were fine to be around other toddlers. Just needed the reassurance.

    @grk_natasha, I didn't see your post till after the festivities. I will research and let the other mothers know in case their kids are effected.
