You're immune if you had it, as far as I know. You can get a blood test to check for immunity.

I'm also pretty sure that once you've had it, you're immune

The test for immunity to 5th disease is included in the obstetric panel that a lot of doctors run in early pregnancy, so if that's your concern, you can ask your doctor to check the results.
