My DD2 has had chicken pox since Friday and has had it quite bad. Today she is feeling much better and a lot of her spots are scabbed over. However the smaller spots don't look like they will as they never had heads or anything. DD1 didn't have any scabs when she had it in half term.
I want to send her to Nursery tomorrow really, or at least Friday when they have their dressing up day thing for literacy week which she was looking forward to.
But I don't want to get her all dressed and ready and be turned away when we get there as she would be so upset. Her spots are very obvious and all over her. But I doubt she is still contagious.
How do you know when the time is right? Tempted just to leave her off till Monday but she is missing it, and driving me bonkers as she is bored and also wants to have the dressing up day thing.
