DD (18 months) has got the dreaded pox, she is now sporting a fine crop including on her face and neck. They started to appear on Tuesday.
I have Calamine and I am having mixed success with getting it on her. She cannot scratch her body directly although I have caught her using the coffee table to scratch her back
I have Piriton syrup which I will probably give her before her nap. Anybody tried Rhus tux? Last night she had a bad night, was very feverish but this morning has eaten breakfast and tried to corner the cat and give it a kicking - so appears to be on the mend bar the itching. Is this the usual pattern - she did some exorcist style vomiting last night before bed so I am hoping that was a one off!
