Just last week, B had roseola infantum. It's also known as false measles or three-day fever.
He had a fever for three days (yup, hence the name). It wasn't bad. Went up to max of 38.6 degrees. That was Monday to Wednesday.
On Thursday morning, I was greeted by this sight.
In the afternoon, he looked like that. :(
On Friday, the rash developed all over his body.
By Saturday, his face had cleared but his lower jaw and body still had the rash. Finally, on Sunday, he was much better. Apparently this is like chicken pox and measles. Most children get it once and then they will be immuned to it henceforth. Well, I am just glad it's over and K didn't get it from B.
He is all happy now. Actually, he was still quite cheerful despite the fever and rash. I think it was I who was rather worried over the fever and then upset over the rash. Parents. I guess that is just what we do. Worry.
