I could be wrong but what ive read I think its when you're in third trimester when it's bad. X

It's only an issue if you haven't had chicken pox before. Did you have it as a child?

Where are the spots on your child as where it presents can give a clue as to whether it's CP or HFM?

If you had it as a child then there should be nothing to worry about. Hope your DD feels better soon.
