    Kimmy - yep some of the spots are fluidy! i have put some fruit puree in the fridge for miss B which she seems to be enjoying - is pretty much the only thing that she will eat! you had heaps of info thanks for that! Hmmm not going to be good if DH or i get it - but im assuming if we were to get it we would have by now????
    Her temp has gone down well today it only peaked at 37.6 which is nothing compared to what it was and she is still miserable - cries and cries and cries and hasnt slept and isnt sleeping now! Im home alone tonight while DH is on shift and im so tired!
    I hate having a sick bub! its hard on both of us!

    kawazuki - 2wks!!!!!!!! B's birthday is comming up soon! my poor little girl is going to miss out on her 1st bday party????!!! oh now im really upset!
    I went to the chemist and got some pinetarsol to put in her bath tonight and i have also covered her in calamine lotion! will definatly try more baths for her tomorrow - she loves her baths so that just might soothe her a bit during the day and hopefull make her feel a little more comfortable and sleepy - we haven't had much sleep last night and tonight is looking like its going to be a painful one also!

    There is a product you can get that you wipe quickly over mouth ulcers and it hardens straight away - Kenalog or something similar maybe. A chemist would know.
    I haven't used it on DD, but SIL tried it on her DD when she had HFM a little while ago. Not sure of any age restrictions.
