For my ds it was a bit like that , another main give away is losing your appetite right before

You should normally see more within a few hours to a day. My baby had isolated hand foot and mouth blisters that appeared slowly. I think it's unlikely to be chickenpox but the only way to be sure is for the GP to swab it.
