My understanding is that a child is most contagious before and while breaking out, so your hubby has already been exposed. Now you just wait to see if he gets them. I've known adults who got them and yes, they did get a worse case of it, but all turned out fine in the end.

Usually for a child the worst of the sickness is over by the time theyr'e done breaking out, so your little guy should be just fine now. Itchy, but not terribly sick.
