Well actually chickenpox is contagious if you continue to feed the child while having chickenpox a child is also going to get it from you and it will be very difficult for you to manage because it’s very difficult to manage small child with chickenpox so you have to avoid feeding or getting close to your child till the time you do not get right completely
