Does this look like chickenpox? *Picture*

I am a bit obsessed with CP at the moment and I think Lily is getting it (I'm obsessed as I got diabetes straight after it when I was 3 so worry abou my children

)

She has 3 spots like this on her face, and one potential one on her tummy

anyone?!!!!

TBH I can't see that clearly from the picture - I guess the only way you are going to know for certain is to wait until tommorrow morning and see if there are anymore.

Hope she stayes clear for you - I can imagine how concerned you are right now.

I agree with VC

It might be CP or it might not - only the morning will tell

Thanks VC and RGK

, the spots are red with like a white pimple in the middle...you can only just see it on the pic. I will try and get another pic!

It's difficult to say. From the pic it looks more like an allergy spot, but could well be early chicken pox. You will know by tomorrow.

Give her an extra hug from aunty scatterbrain just incase.

Yes it does look like CP to me. If it is then no doubt she will have lots more pop up in the next few hours... they tend to start behind the ears I've noticed.

If there's a pimple then I think it's more likely

Sorry

Hope she's OK

yes the white bit in the middle does sound more likely.

Now remember it is better if they get it young as it's likely to be milder. Try not to worry about the diabetes.
