We had a warning that some kids at school had gone down with chickenpox. When ds (age 3, at nursery 2.5 hours a day) woke up this morning, he had three spots on his leg. Has been tired and miserable today and developed a temperature this afternoon. But he's developed a snotty cold too so the spots could be coincidence. Just ordinary spots.
What should I do tomorrow, when he's due at school? Obv. if he's covered in spots I won't send him. But what if he hasn't got any more, no more fever etc. etc.?
Also, my nanny hasn't had it - do I tell her not to come in? Personally I could really do with her esp. if ds is off school so that I can crack on with some work.. but would it be unfair?
Any advice welcome...
