   Ok Zaara's spot look nothing like that Ann....Thanks so much for the photo.
 I took her to my old doc and he was surprised that the other doc said it was chicken pox!! He said its just viral spots...should clear soon. And she has a light fever (at the time he checked she had none) is because she is teething!! by the time we got these half her spots were gone! Arrrgggggg I am soooo mad at that Doc....@!#$!@%!^!@#$......I was soooo worried!!    |

   Good that you got it sorted then. I am glad Brooke had them then as its over and done with.  Both my kids have had them and as someone said that its alot worse when you are an adult.

   ok, so x has come out in spots today, and they look like little welts all over her upper body.  They arent seriously red or discoloured, and they dont appear to be itchy.... am getting out the old family health book, but think i may have to take her back to the doc (again!!! argh, that is 5 times in 2 months!) to get it checked.  is there anything i need to be concerned about for myself and baby?

   Thats what Zaara has too...they are not red but just there, and she is not itching them now. But my Doc seems to think that its a viral thing and will clear. But I say take her to docs, just to be sure!

   I WISH Maya would get chickenpox to get it over and done with but she seems to have a super immune system - every time she is exposed to them she still doesn't catch them!
 Lyla - talk to your doc, but I know chickenpox is only dangerous during pregnancy if the mother contracts it herself, which is pretty rare since most of us have had it already as kids. I don't know about other rashes tho...
 
 Roksana - I hope Zaara is feeling better! I have had viral rashes before and they aren't nice.

   Well she is as jolly as always. She is a tough little girl and nothing seem to bother her.....well atleast the rash doesnt. But I am like a hawke...watching her every min (or at the moment calling my Aunt to make sure she is ok). 
 When I went home for lunch she was fine. Will keep you guys posted as to what is going on with her.

   Glad to hear Zaara is on the mend.  Im in the same camp as you Emma I wish my girls would just hurry up and get the pox.  I dont want them to be like me and get them when they are 18.  just about every kid in Alyssa's kindy got them over the last couple of months but she didnt.  I so dont want to vaccinate because it wears off and i dont think thats a good thing.
