Chicken pox help!!

Hey, I just wonder if anyone can advise about chicken pox? My little boy has woke up with some spots, not many though! There’s an outbreak of chickenpox at his nursery so very possible he’s been in contact with it.. does this look like chicken pox? Everywhere says they come thick and fast but he started this morning and just has a few spots, is it likely chicken pox or coincidence.. any help appreciated!! Thank you ☺️

Few extra pics .. he’s not at all poorly and completely fine in himself which is what’s confusing me a bit!! Just thinking if I need to start planning for the week off school with work etc

It is possible as my daughter didn’t have very many spots

If they blister then they’re pox x

@kayleigh yes I’ve read that they aren’t always covered!! Just some of them look like the pics of chickenpox online then others just look like red spots with no head or anything!! Its a mystery to me 🤯

My 3 year old had similar like this for first 2 days… then he a lot more came in later…. He mostly got it on his abdomen

@sana ahh so it took quite a while for them to come out properly? Online it’s saying once they start they tend to come on really quickly which is what was throwing me! Thank you

2nd day I even visited nhs… and they were also perplexed looking at it and thought it was some kind of bacterial infection

Got scared and took him to ER…. After a lot of hubbub.. it was declared chickenpox 🤦🏻‍♀️

I took photos and it shows it started on 7th April and came up fully on 11th April
