We have POX in NY! - Page 2

[Chamsia]

It's day 9 of exposure here in Cold Spring, NY, and we have a runny nose. Stay tuned.

Alas, we may not be able to host folks until Monday even if she has pox tomorrow. Still, I thought some warning might be appreciated.

If there's anything to report I'll post it here. Have a great weekend everyone, and Happy Mamas Day!!!

[santosha]

Thanks for keeping us updated!

I know what thread I'll be checking obsessively this weekend, lol.

We got pox!

Exactly 2 weeks to the day after sharing lollipops with Tyler and Charlie has the pox! He's feeling ok, too - same thing, slight fever and now over 10 itsy bitsy pox. Just started this morning, so I'm sure he's contagious for several days. We're in Beacon, NY - email me or call if you want to join the fun!

[Susan Wells]

I'd love for my son to get the chicken pox - he begins kindergarten in the fall. If anyone knows of anyone who's having a gathering..... Thank you in advance.

[brooklyn_warbler]

yes, let's please keep this thread going particularly if anyone makes it to play with beth & charlie...looks like me and beth's (well really wren and charlie's, lol) schedules too hard to coordinate with the commute up there.

[Juvysen]

sounds good.

[heartandhandsdoula]

how far is broome county from manhattan?? easy to get to?

[mrs rockstar]

Ugh, the girls and I have some sort of awful flu right now so I don't want to expose them to anything else (or bring their germs around anyone else either!!)...the next batch of kids to come down the pox, please post here! Hopefully we can catch it on the next round.

[MyBoyAramis]

Hopefully we can catch it soon, too. We're in NYC... any pox???

Possible Pox in Berkshire County, MA

We are 14DPE and have a couple pimples, runny nose, and slight fever- but it could be heat rash and a cold It will be more obvious by the morning if they are pox or not and I will post again if/when I know for sure. But if anyone wants to make tentative plans for tomorrow or the next few days after that PM me.

We are about 3hr northwest of NYC. 1hr east of Albany. 20 minutes from Hillsdale, NY/ Taconic Pkwy.

[brooklyn_warbler]

thank you beth and charlie for such a fun time today!

nyc, hold tight and i will report back in 10-21 days, lol. i don't think charlie and wren could've got any closer, so i'm feeling optimistic.

[Amila]

Let us know! I'm down for a trip to nyc!

[Chamsia]

We MAY have pox in Cold Spring NY. Check my "A Pox on us in Cold Spring NY" post in the morning. Here's hoping!!!

[Rico'sAlice]

OK. We DO have it!

[Chamsia]

Us too! I don't think we're available tomorrow, but we'll be home Monday morning 9-12. PM me if you want to come over. Bring lollies/sippy cups/kazoos/etc, and a shirt of your tot's for my daughter to wear for a while.

[santosha]

I just pm'ed you Chamsia!

[Kates779]

we are in rockland county and I want ds to get them... he is 2.5.

I hear, though, that it is bad for babies to get pox, is this true? I have a 9 month old. Should I hold off on DS until DD is older? If not, I am all over this!

[AutumninNY]
