ouch! poor girl. I don't really have any experience with either of those, but it looks uncomfy. I hope she gets better soon.

Aww ... Lyric had something like that when she was 4 months old. She ended up having Ezcema.

oh, that is awful em! sorry you are going through this and poor lyd.

do you have any perfume free bath soaks with lavender or calendula? i don't even know if those would be helpful. do they seem to be itching her or painful? do they go white under pressure from touch? does she have a fever?

i'd just get her to the doc asap, if possible. poor baby :(

i took her to the doctor and she has hives - we think she is allergic to the antibiotics.
so its not either of these diseases (thank god)

Ouch. Sorry your poor baby is going through this. Alexa used to get like that when she would get near grass. Bd's family are all allergic to grass. Luckily, though, she doesn't get like that anymore.

Poor kiddo!! What a relief, though. My cousin's babe had Roseola (sp?) and she was soooo sick. She had a lung infection, too, though.
