Both my daughters had it at the same time and just recently got over it. Lots and lots of calamine lotion. It started out with just a couple of pimple looking things on their arm, and then the next day they starting spreading like crazy. Good luck with that.

The best-known sign of chickenpox is a red, itchy rash that breaks out on your face, scalp, chest and back, but it can spread across your entire body, even into your throat, eyes and vagina.
The chickenpox rash usually appears less than two weeks after exposure to the virus and begins as superficial spots. These spots quickly turn into small liquid-filled blisters that break open and crust over. New spots continue to appear for several days and may number in the hundreds. Itching may range from mild to intense.
The rash may be preceded by or accompanied by:
Fever
Abdominal pain or loss of appetite
Mild headache
General feeling of unease and discomfort (malaise) or irritability
Mild cough and runny nose the first two days of illness before the rash appears
In healthy children, the disease is generally mild.

Chicken pox are round red spots that appear on your body. Alot may appear on your stomach. Try not to scratch them they can leave scars. You can make a paste with corn starch ( about one cup) and water ( about 1/2 cup) really alleviate itches. I wish you the best . They are usually gone in a week or two. I believe they have an incubation period of about 1 week.
