Our little Calvin had the chicken pox last week! He was exposed to them at the night of our MOPS & POPS Vday dinner, but they didn’t show up until last Monday (the last day we were in Houston I might add). And I did fly with him…oops…there weren’t any other kiddos on that flight, so hopefully no one got sick from him :)
All in all he was pretty good with his poxes, just needed a little more snuggle time, which was ok by me! He never snuggles with me these days.
He only had about 40 spots, mostly on his head and diaper area. I think it worked out him getting them so young b/c he didn’t really know they were itchy or how to scratch them, so he didn’t even notice it really. We gave him 3 oatmeal baths to ease some of the discomfort and some motrin about 3 times, but that was it.
Now he just has the little crusty spots waiting to heal :)

Thanks for the laugh! Poppy has been sick with flu and seeing my little buddy twirl and go under water made me laugh...and start a coughing spasm...
Gotta love our poxey Cal!!!
