Sounds like it could be the pox. I'd check her torso carefully - that's where they started with my DSs. Anything that looks like a red pin prick is a possible.

well only a few more not big only ones looks like the pox, so maybe not!

My DS1 just had it and I didn't even know for a while! I saw what I thought was a pimple on one of his testicles and was worrying about that. And a few days after, I wondered why he was having a pimple outbreak! I still didn't clock till my friend was over and I pointed out his 'pimples' to her and she said it was chicken pox! And he got a few more spots after that but not fluid-filled ones. I was surprised as I had the pox at age 10/11 and was in misery for a few weeks and DS1 had two rather 'off' days and that was that. Chicken pox under the age of 5 can be very mild so hopefully if your DD has it, she won't suffer too much.
