Hi ladies,

My LO seems to have a spotty rash all over his face, sometimesit goes down but only for a few minutes, then it flares right back up again. He's had it for about 3 days now. He's not in any pain or acting any different and is still eating well, just wandered if anyone else has experienced this with your LO's.

I haven't personally but a couple of my friends' LOs have a rash. They were told that it was either heat rash or due to the hormones that are passed onto little boys from their mummies in the womb (I think they get a does of oestrogen which can cause spots, swollen nipples etc.)

If you are worried Ithough would ask your HV or see the GP

yes had a rash spots all over annabelles cheeks, had them nearly 2 weeks all through the hot weather. the health visitor has seen her twice and not really been worried. could be milk spots or a heat rash but said it was fine and normal. annabelle is now getting them on her neck at the back and the top of her back, but hoping its a heat rash and were she sweats. all health visitor said was keep an eye on it!! but i dont know what is ok!! xxx

thanks for the replies. I'm not getting too worried about it because as I say, sometimes it disappears for a few minutes and he's definitely not in any discomfort but I just wanted to double check.

Bless us 1st time mummies for being so worried!!!
