what could this be?

[cheesesarnie]

i know its hard to tell from a pic(on my profile).but ds2 has a rash on his back,he seems fine in himself etc.im just panicking as the person id normally run to asking advice was my mil who passed away 2 weeks ago-i think im having a no confidence in my parenting skills moment!anyhow -any ideas?

can't see your pics

sorry should be on there now.its quite hard to see grrrrr

has he had chicken pox?

tis the season for it

it doesn't look like a scary rash to me, it looks like it could be chicken poxy type thing

ahhh!i thought chicken pox but then i think everything is chicken pox .he has had it mildly twice and the gp said he could get it again.what do i do if anything?just leave it?

gecko had chicken pox when she was 4 weeks old (caught from dd2) and she has just had it again

both times mildly and I think she is going to be like my mum who has it every year (very mildly)

If he feels itchy then some piriton syrup would help
he may have a temp so calpol but other than that just fluids and cuddles

Just keep an eye on him incase he developes other syptoms that mean it isn't chicken pox but I think it is
hope he feels better soon

thankyou!im glad to hear of someone else whos had it a few times-i get odd looks at baby group when i say actually you can get it more than once.
