A couple of months ago Chloe came out in loads of spots which we initially though was chicken pox, but then they just went away and the doctor put it down to an allergy. Well this morning she woke up with a lot of spots which have spread massively since I took the photo below. I took her to the doctors this morning who said it might be chicken pox but won't know until it starts to scab over, or it might be viral

What do you think? She's probably got twice the amount since I took this pic at 9ish this morning

ooooh eck not sure what that might be, they look too big to be chicken pox. Why dont you google "Baby rashes", some websites will show a pic of different rashes so you could compare maybe x

I'm always reluctant to google symptoms, because I think they can make you worry even more, they do look too big for chicken pox and they're really flat too. It's very odd

has she had her MMR??? x

yes she has had all her jabs. I've just been googling the images of some of the common rashes, chicken pox, measles etc and

It doesn't look like any of them! It definitely doesn't look like chicken pox, maybe she is allergic to something

mmmm i was thinking measles/ringworm. Have you done the glass test??? Have you changed powder, bubble bath or has she eaten something she hasnt had before??? x

No it doesn't look anything like those, they're too big and spaced apart, most of the ones I've looked at tend to be smaller and closer together and more angry looking. Yes they disappear when pressed, no we haven't changed anything and I don't think she's eaten anything different, and because she's such a piggie and eats so much food, it's going to be hard to identify what it could be. Will see how she gets on today. If it gets worse, I'll take her to the hospital walk in centre x

yeh keep an eye on it - wonder what it could be ?? Let us know x

heya, it looks really similar to the viral rash laura posted pics of in this thread http://www.babiesandall.com/baby-babble-f5/what-is-this-rash-t1772.htm

scroll down cos it's quite far down

thanks Mari, it looks exactly the same as that. That must be what it is then! Thanks hun x
