Post chicken pox and swimming

[mummynumnum]

Dd has been in the scabbed over phase of chicken pox for about 5 days now-when do you think it will be safe/not sore to resume swimming again?

No idea ... probably when they're almost gone (it doesn't take long). If you take a scabby poxy child into a public swimming pool, I'm pretty sure you'll get some worried looks and will be given quite a wide berth

Yeah thats what thought-not sure I can bare the looks
