Dd1 started with chicken pox 2 weeks ago. She's had it very mildly and suffered no loss of appetite that I noticed in the lead-up to the spots appearing. However, while she had it and since, she has complained of being constantly hungry. She's always been a good eater, but at the moment I can't fill her up! I wondered if it was a boredom thing while we were cooped up, but it has continued now we're out and about again.
I'm offering healthy snacks - toast, fruit etc but nothign seems to keep her full.

Has anyone else expeienced this? Does t subside again?

She's just 3yo BTW.
