Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Help me out here..

DS#2 who is 10 days old has a rash that is on his arms and chest and back. I am thinking that he got heat rash from being over dressed and in the moby, but just incase I want to have other things I try.Of course everyone says check your laundry detergent but I use 7th Gen and only use 1/2 the amount. Also I have only put lotion on him a few times and I used Aveeno sensitive skin baby lotion. Help me here. I EBF so I guess it could be something i am eatting. He is also spitting up alot and is mad everytime he has to poop, but I think he may just be getting used to pooping as it is just breastmilk poop.I have already taken him to the Dr. and they said it is contact dermatitis...a reaction to something, not any kind of infection or anything. What do you think?

  • Hmm... sounds like a skin irritation to me.  Might be the Aveeno.  I know it doesn't do with with some babies skin.  I would try not to put any "extras" on him until you know what's causing the problem.  At least that's what I would do! 

    How about the Moby?  Was that washed in 7th Gen also?

    I'm going to ask Gia's doctor about it on Tuesday. She has it pretty much all over her body now except for where it started, her face. It reminds me of how my eczema does when I have flare ups.
