Is this chicken pox?

These spots have appeared on my 3 yr this afternoon. Under her armpit and down her side, there's also a couple on her knee. She's totally fine in herself, no temperature and the spots aren't itchy. They don't appear to spreading elsewhere on her body yet. Could it be chicken pox? There's so many different images on google it's hard to tell and I don't think I've ever seen it in real life! Not that I can remember anyway!

Chicken pox also doing rounds at my daughters nursery, and amongst my childminder pals.
If you are going to see any pregnant women or tiny babies, just prewarn them before hand! X

It's the Pox! Took her to the pharmacy who said to take her to the GP as she wasn't sure what it was but the GP confirmed it's a mild case of the pox. Thanks for the advice everyone!
