Is this chicken pox?
He has eczema on his shoulders, but the rash on his back is different, appeared last night and he now has some on his neck and chest too.
Help!
@melanie-spiritmedium thank you hun, ill keep you posted x
@laurenjaynebutcher, Hope you get sorted you don’t really need the added pressure at the minute 😩x
@melanie-spiritmedium yeah that's my other concern! Its not going well at the moment honestly xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, Just realised you’re pregnant too! Get some advice on how to protect yourself from it too as it can be dangerous while pregnant but I’m sure they can advise what to do to be cautious x
@melanie-spiritmedium i hope so! Thank you! Xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, oh god! Everyone always says you can only get it once but my daughter had it twice so I know it’s possible but rare. Hopefully it’ll be your little one’s only time x
@melanie-spiritmedium i got it twice as a child and then shingles when i was 6! Ended up in hospital with it, so im a little worried about that too x
@laurenjaynebutcher, yeah I think it’s contagious until the spots stop leaking 😩 it’s a pain at least it’s not a recurring thing x
@melanie-spiritmedium okay, i think ill take him to the chemist in the morning, as he isn't allowed in nursery if it chicken pox and i don't want to risk taking him all the way there to be turned away! Xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, Ah yeah you don’t wanna risk making the eczema worse! I’m not sure I’m not too clued up on eczema but a pharmacist in the chemist will be able to tell you or maybe the NHS website x
@melanie-spiritmedium can he have the lotion alongside his eczema lotion though? Xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, yeah it’s probably chickenpox then hun, calamine lotion is great for any rash/spots it takes the itch out so he won’t scratch them and risk scars from it plus he can have calpol to keep his temp down x
@katejohnson will do, hes had crab before at a younger age and it didnt effect him at all, i really dont think its that. @melanie-spiritmedium yeah ive checked the NHS website and thats what it looks like too xx
Ah I didn’t see the comment about the crab sticks! My son is allergic to shellfish x
@laurenjaynebutcher, If they have heads on them there’s deffo a chance they’re chicken pox, if they are the heads will become bigger and start leaking fluid. Calamine lotion works wonders for them it takes the itch away x
I deffo think its a reaction hun, hope hes ok tho. Keep us updated 😁
@katejohnson he got the rash first, temp didn't come till 2am almost 12 hours later cc
A temperature is the first sign of a reaction,give him some piriton xx
@melanie-spiritmedium @katejohnson ive just checked about allergic reactions and looked at photos and they are hives, his rash isnt hives, its like spots, some have little heads on them, and they have spread xx
@laurenjaynebutcher yeah that can cause a temperature
@laurenjaynebutcher, Aww so there’s a chance he’ll catch it anyway poor little thing but it’s best to catch it young than as an adult x
@melanie-spiritmedium yeah chicken pox is going round his nursery hence why i thought it could be, but hes been fine in himself until last night xx
@katejohnson thats my next guess, he had crab sticks yesterday before the rash showed so maybe it was that. Could that have caused the temp? Xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, was just about to ask what @katejohnson, asked about allergic reactions? Only because with chicken pox the spots start coming out a few days after catching the virus. At least he’s not sick with it tho whatever it is x
Try some sudocream it might just be an irritation
@melanie-spiritmedium no to either, he had a temp once at 2am yesterday morning, had cuddles with me and some Calpol, it went and hasn't came back, but this rash was there late afternoon, and has started to spread xx
@laurenjaynebutcher, Aww is he sick or got a temp? My son gets heat rash that looks like this when he has a viral infection x
@katejohnson @melanie-spiritmedium definitely not either of those, thank you though.
I wouldn't say they where filled with fluid either, but they are slightly blistering so maybe early stage? I couldn't get a closer picture he wouldn't let me xx
If no fluid this could be a heat rash my little one has always suffered them x
Chicken pox are spots filled with fluid hun it’s hard to tell from pic but if they have fluid in there’s a good chance that’s what they are. On the plus side it’s best to have them young. Hope he’s feeling ok x
Prayers needed please
My husband is on his way to his mothers house, and he has no idea when he gets there that he is going to find out his little brother killed himself thismorning.
Soooooo jeb has been i guess clingy. For the last 3-4 days he has always tried to crawl to me or crawl out his room to me. Or he is in his walker and rolls over to me.
He is now in his room crying at the door because he cant get out to get to me.
He will be 1yr in a few weeks. Is this a leap thing or what???

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
How yu gonna argue with me because i find child support stupid af if the father takes his child has a roof over his head and food in his fridge when he has the kid why does he need to pay you so you have a roof over your head and your bills are paid isnt that your job as a mother. Not fair that a man has to make sure he has everything for himself and his baby at his place and take care of his baby mommas "bills". Smh. To each its own but to argue with me about my opinion. Tf get out my face with...
@laurenjaynebutcher, good luck xx
