Does this look like the start of chicken pox?

Hmmm, possibly...could also be hives, hand door and mouth....you will know by morning, if there are more in far apart places. I found my son was grumpy and itchy for about 4 days but still has more spots till day 7 xx

Thanks Beck, her sister is just getting over it so that was why it was my initial thought

If her sister is just getting over chicken pox then it's almost certainly chicken pox.

My eldest got CP on the 13 Dec and my youngest got it exactly 20 days later on the 23rd of Dec. I think the average incubation period is 12-16 days but can range anything between 10-21 days.
