    I was worry because my daughter got the fifth disease a few weeks ago. When I went the ped, and he said that she had the fifth disease, he said for I talk with the OB because it could be dangerous for the babies. So I call the OB, since I have my genetic counselor and the sonogram/blood work in the next day, my OB advice me for I tell her about that, and they should make extra blood work to check for fifth disease, well the nurse forget to do it bacause in the next week I went to my high risk appointement and the doctor she didn't has any information about that. So finally today I got the negative result!!!!!
    I was so worried, I didn't sleep so well at night just thinking that something could be wrong!

    So glad you are safe. :hug: But I know it's hard not to worry. When I was pregnant with my oldest DD fifth's disease was going around the elem. school I was teaching at and I was very worried about getting it.

    This was something that I never heard and probably, I didn't care but when I let my daughter at the babysitter, she asks me if she has that disease, and I ask her what disease was that. They call slapping face and my daughter was the face a little bit red, but She didn't has any fever so I was not worried, but then I search in the net and see it could be dangerous for me, so that's why I took her to the ped.
