Chicken Pox


Yikes - Connor had chicken pox in the second week of his Easter Holidays, but seemed to get off quite lightly, he didn't have too many spots and they lasted just a couple of days. Well on Thursday I noticed one spot on Amelia and didn't think much of it as Connor had been well for over a week at this stage, but by the Friday morning she definately had a lot more so we went to the Dr's who said she agreed with me that she had the chicken pox, although apparently it is quite unusual for babies under six months to get it as they still have the protection of their mothers immunity!! Today is Tuesday and she is absolutely covered in spots the poor little thing, she will be 4 months on Sunday and she just seems too small to have all these spots, some of them are very angry and red looking! She seems happy in herself though and is still full of smiles like normal so I don't think the spots are affecting her too much - thankfully! When Connor first saw all her spots he said "Oh my poor baby!", he is so cute with her!
