My dd2's pre school has had a lot of chicken pox going round for the last few weeks. Yesterday I was called to pick her up as she wasn't herself and they thought she was sickening with something. She was fine when she got home yesterday and went to pre school as normal today. Then this afternoon we walked to school to pick up dd1, whilst there dd2 had a crying fit as she wanted to take her coat off and I said it was too cold!! She cried for 10 mins or so and then about half an hour later came up with 5 big spots on her cheek which I have never seen before! Off i went to the chemist and stocked up on callomine lotion, nurofen etc!! Then about an hour ago, 2 hours after the spots came they disappeared!!! Could this be the start of chicken pox or just some weird coincidence??

chicken pox spots don't disappear. they're like blisters... and they scab over then heal

probably a coincidence. You will know when it's cp. They can not be mistaken!
