Pregnant after a Loss

DS has fifths disease

Just looking at him you can tell and while I read online that it is usually fine for pregnant women to be exposed to it, I still freaked when I read "usually." 

Since I already had it, it seems like I'll be okay.  Mother can pass immunity to baby.  Just one more thing to add to my perpetual list of worry.

Re: DS has fifths disease

  • Poor DS! My RE said as long as you have a Parvo virus titer it is not a problem. If you already had it that is probably the case. Did they check your titers??

  • That sounds so inappropriate... only DH is allowed to check my titers. 

    I went to OB today and didn't know DS was getting sick so I had no idea to ask anything.

  • I have no idea why that posted twice....

    DS's babysitter called in a panic because she was exposed while pregnant and had bi-weekly ultrasounds/bloodwork and baby had hearing tests at the beginning because it can cause neurological problems in the unborn baby.  Lovely.

  • Haha.. I was like what's weird about titers then I saw how you saw it tit-ers

    I would call your OB and see if they can check your titers to see if you've had it. I'm thinking to do this for a number of things, because as a pediatrician I get exposed to everything... good luck! It's pretty common so you likely already have immunity.

    I was exposed with my last pregnancy at 12w.  They ran bloodwork, saw I already had the antibodies present and not a current infection and that was it.  Maybe your babysitter hadn't ever been exposed before?
