Hi OP, probably a viral rash from what you’ve described about snotty nose and cough. Also the pics look like a viral rash. CP tends to be fluid filled blisters. Hope your LO feels better soon

Thank you, we were undecided as some do look blistered. Just not aggressive enough to look like CP.
I guess we'll see how he goes tomorrow!

These are today's photos day 2. So unsure as some are looking like blisters? There is more today than yesterday also.

Did you find out what this was? DD has similar and I guess it's a viral rash but it bugs me!
