Chickenpox: Chickenpox is more of an issue for the baby in the first trimester. However, adults getting chickenpox are at risk of respiratory issues from the chickenpox and in general have more complications than healthy children. If you have chickenpox stay away from other pregnant women. Best course of action is to call your OB provider and see if they recommend medication.
