Fred Coleman Dr. Fred Coleman is a perinatologist, or maternal-fetal medicine subspecialist. There is no risk that we know of. Unfortunately, that doesn't say much because the vaccine hasn't been out long enough to be sure.

Overall, I don't think there is anything to worry about.
Most people have immunity to it even if they think they have never had chicken pox.
