Re: little red dots all over my baby...

[Guest guest]

could be sensitivity to detergent/heat rash/allergy to something you ate.

As long as she is w/o fever, try changing your diet to something pretty

bland for a few days.

Hives from stress? Poison ivy? Flea bites? Chiggers? Reaction to local

pollens? If it is all over your body, it may be systemic, and something in

your bloodstream, but not caused by breastfeeding.

Got some oatmeal to soak in?

Just wanted to add, that AMandelyn had the pimple type rash on her face, but

when it moved to her chest and arms the doctor told me it was almost always

viral and not baby acne.. baby acne should only be on the face..

Felicia, my daughter has the same and they are slowly spreading down her

chest. They look like just baby acne to me, but since it spread im going

to make a appointment.She has them all over her face, all over her

scalp, neck,and going down her chest now.I called the doc a few days ago

and she said if it looks like acne it probably is, but now im worried

because its getting worse. My daughter is 5 weeks.

Wendi, the funny part is that it seems worse after i breastfeed. I hate

to take her to the doc if its just acne though which i think it is

because some have white heads on them. Maybe my breastmilk irritates her

skin?

Christi,

Even if it is a virus there isn't much to be done other than comfort measures.

If your baby shows signs of illness: lethargy, lack of appetite, fever,

vomiting, diarrhea then of course you should take your baby to be seen by your

health care practitioner. I have seen several cases of baby acne that was not

isolated to just the face. I am sure that it wasn't a viral infection as these

baby's showed absolutely no signs of illness.
