DS had a few small raised spots around his belly button this morning, I didn't think much of it as he's got no rash and is well in himself, only other thing is he's had a few "soft nappies" since yesterday, not full on diarrhoea just very soft, both the rash and the nappies I put down to the heat.
This afternoon the rash has spread across his belly and chest so took him to the chemist to let the pharmacist take a look and she said it looks like first signs of chicken pox and I'll know for sure by the morning. Since we got back 2 more spots have come up on his back.
I'm a bit unsure from looking at pics on google of chicken pox rash but I'm worried if it is chicken pox as I'm 8 months pregnant and the NHS site says it can be dangerous for the unborn child to come into contact with the virus?
I've added a pic of the spots but they are more red in real life they don't look much on the pic.
Thanks for any advice!
