Hi all i have noticed tonight after bathing Ashleigh that she has come out in a rash.

Its red and the spots are very small and they look like they have water or something in the ones that have heads on. I noticed ealier today she had a few but put it down to her nappy that she wears at night. Now they are half way down her inner thighs and now starting under her armpits and on the top of her back and on her neck.

She is ok in herself but i'm not sure what this is and weather to be worried about it. I will see how it is in the morning if its any worse i will take her to the docs.

But if anyone's lo has had this or may know what it is then please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Cameron has chickenpox at mo - these start as small red spots which then turn 'blistery' - have fluid in them. I'd take her to doctor tomorrow and get them checked out Emma. Hope you have an ok night with her.

Is it chicken pox as they normally start in the mid-drift area first.

Sorry hadn't read that bit,

Thanks Sam i thought it might be this but wasn't sure as they have never had anything like it. She has been full of a cold well both have and wondered like you said if it could be a virus. She hasn't had a tempertaure of such that would bring this out so i thought it could be a virus.

I will see how she is tomorrow and if i'm still not sure i will get her checked over. Thanks again ladies. xxxxx

svannah had something like this a few weeks ago, it turned out to be the new bubble bath she had.
