Clinical narrative: As of today, 7/19/02, I have broken out with a rash of chicken pox over my body.  My main concern is according to people I spoke with today at the CDC, my 4 week old infant is in danger of catching the chicken pox from me as I have blisters/pox on my breasts and am breast-feeding her.  According to the person I spoke with at the CDC, the chicken pox is "very dangererous" for her.  I am extremely upset that I was not advised to wait until she had been vaccinated at 12 months of age before I had this vaccine myself.  I now have to wait 2-3 weeks in fear to see if she breaks out with the chicken pox.
