Has anyone gotten Fifths disease while pregnant? ?

My 5 yo nephew was diagnosed with Fifths disease. The weekend before he was diagnosed I was around him and even let him share my drink. I waiting for my blood test to let me know if i am immune or if I currently have it. I know that it is rare for it to effect a fetus, but I am still worried. Has anyone ever gone through this?
I just read up on it and it says nothing about pregnant women needing to be cautious–at least you took a blood test and the doctors can take appropriate action if you do have it. good luck.
No- but my daughter exposed some people when she was 9 months old. I think it is only a problem if you are really early in pregnancy. Most people have had fifth’s disease at some point in their life. The woman that might daughter exposed was about 8 months along. She and her baby were just fine.
