Well, DS has 3 really red looking bites on his butt area. After looking at pictures on the internet, I think he has chigger bites. He has been outside and playing in the grass a lot so it makes sense. Well, I was looking and ran across chicken pox pictures...WOW!!! I had them when I was little and was covered with them...but I can't believe some of the pictures I saw. DS is 18 mos and we were waiting until he was closer to 2 to have his MMR and chicken pox (at separate times) but I think when he has is 18 mos check up I'll go ahead and do it. Did any of your lo's have a bad reaction to the shot? Thanks in advance!

My lo is 20 months and we are holding off on the MMR and declined the Chicken Pox b/c it seems unnecessary and does not provide complete coverage. Good luck.

My son had the shot one day and the next morning he was covered in bumps. My daughter had no reaction. You could call your doctor.
