chicken pox II and III

I've done this before - posted pleading for life to get back to normal, and it only goes and gets worse!! Husband had a nightmare trying to finish the video, which meant the computer was on constantly over the weekend - finally took it into work yesterday. Edward had a nightmare couple of days mood-wise, with freakish tantrums taken to another level, then on Friday he came out in spots and I realised he had, in fact, got chicken pox. Sarah started with spots on the same day but hers were faint to begin with. She's about a day behind. So, she started well, but then rapidly declined, and we've had two nights with no sleep. Edward is on the mend, I think it will be day 5 for him tomorrow, but Sarah's face and head look terrible and she is so unsettled at night-time. I've tried her in a disposable nappy, and just a sleepsuit tonight in case the heat was making the irritation worse. Buying Calpol and Calprofen constantly. Been in the house for nigh on 3 weeks now!!!
