Hi dd 4 came down with chicken pox on friday evening, and she has widespread spots on her torso but only a few on her arms and legs and only one on her face (thank goodness) Anyhow, she is well in herself and her spots have crusted over apart from a few red dots which have no head/fluid in them and are not like the other spots iyswim, they are more like red dots on her skin. The true chicken pox spots are all dried.
It is her nursery childrens party tommorrow and after speaking to the health visitor and nursery teacher they are of the opinion that as long as the spots are dry then she will be ok, but I am really worried that I am putting the other children at risk. I know that the evidence shows that she was more infectious before the rash appeared, but I am also worried about what the other mums will say
What if I have missed the one spot that has not yet scabbed over and she infects another child??
Please advise me
