Rash on cheeks and fever... Pip

Lelo2006

Does this look like fifth disease?

He's tired, has a weird, blotchy rash on his face, whiny, and has a low grade fever (101 at the highest).

Any ideas? Poor love .

Poor lovey! 5ths usually looks like the whole cheek is red like baby has been slapped or burned. That looks like regular fever, but get your LO tested because it's contagious & can reoccur.

Feel better soon LO!

E had a virus where she had a low fever (101.7 or less) and her cheeks turned red. This lasted 1-2 days and was follower by congestion, snot, cough etc which is still lingering. Maybe it's similar? Either way feel better baby.

Thank you, everyone! His face looks less red now. He still has a fever but seems a lot better.
