My DD1 is 3 and has chicken pox. We've been having trouble with her (usual attention seeking stuff) as DD2 arrived 6 weeks ago. Unfortunately I think DD1 is using the CP as an excuse and she's running us ragged - up and down the stairs, water, needs a wee, pillow is in the wrong place etc etc.
I bathed her this evening with bicarb, given her calpol and piriton and slathered her with eurax. She's crying hysterically and screaming (I can hear her now) - what else can I do? I just don't believe her spots are itchy, that eurax stuff is fantastic and has kept the itching at bay all day.
Any suggestions?
