'lollipox' questions

[Guest guest]

I have a friend who's daughter came down with the chicken pox today. The mom is

using her to 'infect' lollipops and is sending them out tomorrow. I plan to

give one to my daughter but I want to make sure it's all OK before I do for the

following reasons:

She's 20 months old--is that too young to 'purposely' infect her? She is also

still breastfeeding--obviously not exclusively, but will that keep her from

getting it?

I am 6 weeks pregnant. I did have a good case of chicken pox when I was 5.

She has had a runny nose for 2 weeks and a cough for a little over a week--not

sure exactly what it is...I've tried every homeopathic I have that is indicated

for runny nose or cough and nothing has worked...we are trying some herbs now.

Is it a bad idea to try to get her sick when she is already sick? She doesn't

have a fever.

Does she actually have to exhibit the pox for her to really have it? I don't

know how to explain, it's like I want her to GET the pox but not HAVE IT if that

makes sense lol I mean I don't want her to 'suffer' with it if she doesn't have

to. I know homeopathics generally 'increase' the symptoms before resolving

them, would giving her rhus tox help, hurt, or what?

Any other info I should have?

Thanks!
