So, I found out with this pregnancy that I'm no longer immune to rubella. No big deal, I'll get the vaccine when baby is here. Well, there is a recorded case of rubella in the city that I live in...... awesome. I guess we'll see what my OB/GYN has to say about this at my next appointment. Never thought I would rely so heavily on herd immunity. Sure takes my opinions about vaccines to a whole new level.

I'm also no longer immune to rubella this pregnancy.
Really hope that there's nothing for you to worry about - that's scary. -
@MamaBehr: eek! I heard about that case today. I hope everything will be fine and that it doesn't spread.

@Mrs. Oatmeal: I had no idea what a big deal it is! I mean if I get this, it is really really really bad for baby. It makes me stressed to think about the birth defects that could happen, and then I get angry thinking about someone hurting my baby, who is completely helpless.
@Boopers: I hope they find the other 70 people who have been exposed and that they don't have it.... Especially since it doesn't always show symptoms in adults.
