Chickenpox - more spots on day 10?

Our 3 month old baby caught chickenpox from one of his big brothers over the holidays - he was OK in himself but absolutely covered head to toe in hundreds of spots in all areas including right next to his eyes.
We were relieved that on day 6/7 they all looked to have crusted over, but yesterday and today (days 9&10) several more have appeared! Not loads but maybe about 10 so far.
Has anyone else experienced this just when you'd had a few days of seeming crusted over?
He still seems fine in himself and most of his body looks a lot calmer in terms of rash so I'm hoping this is a weird final flurry and not it all starting up again but it's a worry!
