Does this look like Slapped Cheek Virus?

[LaineyG]

One side of Mhairi's face has gone bright red, she hasn't been at it and nothing in her routine has changed (same wipes/washing powder/creams and bath stuff).

Has anyones LO had Slapped Cheek and if so, does this look familiar?

I'm not sure to be honest. Arianna had it and hers looked a lot brighter than that - but it could just be the pic.

I will go look for the thread I posted about Arianna.

This is the thread with all the symptoms that I posted

It's my crap camera phone! Plus the fact that everytime I point it at Mhairi she wants to grin at it!

It is a shocking red against her pale skin. She has just got over a chesty cold and was only really back to herself yesterday.

Should I take her to the Docs? She's her normal grumpy self!

I would take her just to be safe. The doctor told me to give Arianna Calpol and also gave me a prescription for an antihistamine (sp?)

Teething possibly?
