My kids had when they were a little older, it started with fever for a few day and then a rush. It lasted 2-3 days if I remember correctly.

There is no vaccine for it, but check with your pediatrician because maybe in babies you have to be more vigilant.

They may just have cold symptoms...runny nose, watery eyes, mild fever. Most people have had it and never knew. I had to get tested while pregnant because my niece got exposed at school.
