I know that I had shingles just after I had my last child, when my immunity was low. All four of my children had chicken pox at the time and my youngest, then fully breast fed, had such good immunity that she only had one spot! She's now in her mid-thirties and has never caught it again so must have developed immunity despite the lack of spots.
