allergy?? intolerance?? teething?? OMG!!
« on: February 21, 2008, 21:43:14 pm »
Hi everyone!

My DD is 6.5 mths old and has little red spots on her neck, arms and chest. This is what I am doing:

- I'll return to work in 10 days so we have partially switched to formula (she has been excluvely BF until 1 week ago, now I am BF early morning and night)
- She is taking ENFAPRO calcium enriched A+
- Solids: Oat Cereal (only one she likes), Squash, Sweet potatoes, green beens
- Fruits: Pear, banana
- I prepare all her food until 3 days ago I gave her Peas and Banana from comercial food (GERBER) then... I noticed these spots on her neck. 2 nights ago spots are on her chest and arms and I noticed she scratches the back of her neck (itchy?!)
- On top of that, we are in winter and she must be bundle up all the time

This morning she's developing a diaper rash!!!

Any ideas why is this rash??
is she allergic to comercial food?? allergy to peas?
is just intolerance??
is she teething?? I know some bb develop diaper rash while teething, correct?

I am so confused!! I really appreciate your comments!!

Thanks  ;D ;D ;D

It could be an allergy to something in the comercial food, it is also possible that it could be a reaction to the formula if that was only introduced a week ago. What do the spots look like? Is the skin dry around it?

I agree with Kelly - sounds like a possible intolerance/allergy to either the commercial food and/or the formula...

Hi there!!!
I took Daniella to her doctor and he found it was a viral rash. All spots looked the same size and she had some areas where there were few together so they looked bigger. She is fine now, her skin is still dry so we are using a little bit of bath oil at bath time and daily body lotion.

Thanks for your interest and comments!!! ;D ;D ;D
