Roseola?

[cgoodwin]

Does anyone know the rules for roseola exposure? My daughter got sick on Sunday, and I have never been exposed before. I know you are supposed to alert your doctor to any exposures, but I really don't want to deal with that idiot. I do have a fever of 100.5, which I just took Tylenol for. Advice?

To be honest I had no idea, so I just did some looking up because I was interested :) The majority of places say by the time a woman becomes pregnant, she most likely has already been exposed to the virus- and a lot of the time they don't even know it, because the rash doesn't appear and the virus goes away on its own. If you get it once, you'll never get it again. The amount of fetus' who've been exposed and the number it's affected is very very very low. It looks like Tylenol for your daughter should do the trick, and if you happen to get it too, you too :)
