Is this chicken pox?

Hi,
We saw a pharmacist who originally thought this could be chicken pox however it was very different Monday with just spots over her back and belly, today my little girl has woken up like this.. it just doesn't seem like the 'classic' chicken spots, she's very very itchy and upset. wondered if anyone has any other ideas what it could be? Going to ring the gp this morning
Thank you

The arm looks like it might be, the spots develop into watery type blisters with chicken pox, my dd had lots of very defined spots. The back photo looks more like a rash of sorts.
Agreed a gp phone call might be in order

That looks like a viral rash to me, rather than chicken pox.
