CHICKENPOX take 2

Well it has been Charlotte's turn to pick up the dreaded germ of chickenpox! And boy did she pick it up bad! She was covered from head to toe and looked like she was in so much pain! The first few days were not too bad BUT that was lulling us into a false secuirty as she has had it really bad! she has been crying alot as she is so sore from it with them everywhere, even those places that we wont mention! On the Monday I even called the Dr to come and do a homevisit as she was really bad and even vomited early hours on Monday. He checked her out and said that she was doing ok and that she wasn't suffering from any comlications from it, thank goodness! As I sit and right this she is still pretty bad as she has some sore on her bottom that just wont heal well, doesn't help that she is in nappies all day! We are treating them with antiseptic and creams and have our fingers crossed that they don't go into ulcers or anything.


This photo was taken a few days into the chickenpox and I must say that this is a good photo compared to what she did look loike trhe few days before!
We have been worried as Will has had a few spots but we are not sure if it is chickenpox or mozzie bite or heat rash, so as a result he has been in quarantine as well, just in case!

Poor Charlotte! Hope she gets better real soon.

I do too! The spots are hanging around and because she is not mobile and moving they are taking ages to heal. She has some nast ones that I think will leave marks!
