rash...

LO has a rash. It's primarily on his torso though a bit on his neck. Its not really red; his skin is just really bumpy. It appeared a couple days ago and hasn't gotten any worse or better, although prior to the bumps, his skin was just very dry. His arms and legs are dry too although we use lotion daily. Thoughts?DH thinks its NBD but I think it warrants a call to the pedi before his appt next week

    Did you or your husband change soap, lotion, detergent, perfume, etc lately? Or did you change any of LOs stuff?

    I can't remember, are you giving breastmilk? Did you eat anything out of the ordinary?

    Could it be a heat rash?

    We didn't change anything but he started daycare recently. I wonder if its a reaction to something there but since its only under where his clothes are I'm not sure if that could be it.

    He gets about one third milk... but I can't think of anything unusual I've eaten lately

    How long does heat rash last typically? It HAS been very hot and humid here

    Probably heat rash but isn't a rash also a sign of dairy allergy? I could be wrong though.


    I'm not sure... I'll call the doc. Thanks!

    My guess is heat rash. This lil guy gets really sweaty esp when he cries. Hes had all over his chest before

    My LO has this from time to time and I just rub coconut oil into those areas after his bath and it clears up. If it hadn't worked, I would have then called the pedi, but luckily it did. That stuff works miracles sometimes.

    Sounds like heat rash,,,,,but I'm not a doctor.mu LO had heat rash for two days and it took two more to clear up once I started concentrating on keeping her cool and helping the pores open during her bath. GL I hope LO feels better.
    SIGNATURE FAIL!!!!!!!
