hi, i had this happen to me just yestereday! luckly because your over 20 weeks i think your in the safe zone! have you had chicken pox before? because then you should be immune anyway. i rang my midwife who got hold of my bloods i had taken when booking in and had them rechecked to see if i was immune (wasnt sure if i had had it), luckly it came back i am and it only took about 5 hours to get the results!! the best thing to do is speak to your midwife but im sure everything will be fine, good luck and let me know how you get on

I had this too a few weeks ago, and exactly what tinkerbell said. If you've had it, then your baby is fine and your immunity will protect the baby. Also, as you're over the 1st trimester period, your baby is safer. Good luck!

i cant believe how irresponsible some people can be!!! thats just plain selfish, i would be fuming. if she knew she should of let you know straight away, for all she knows you could be sat at home with chicken pox now!! speak to your midwife first thing -im sure youll be fine x

have you tried leaving her a message? or you could try getting your doctor to phone the midwife unit?
