    Lastnight i noticed a rash type thing on aiden's chest and back. the bumps are not red and are not raised. they are flat and you have to look at his chest in a certain light to see the bumps. i have no idea what this is and what it is from but if any of oyu mommas could help me figure out what it is i would appreciate it alot.

    thanks
    Brit

    nope still there. im guessing its psoriasis or something along that line. i had noticed these bumps on his face a few weeks ago and starrted putting aveeno cream lotion on his face and the bumps seemed to go away so i am just going to do the same and take him to the drs.

    has he had red cheeks lately? Fifths disease is VERY common in toddlers. It went thru our playgroup like a wildfire. lol it looks like they have a "slapped face" or sunburnt cheeks. Anyhow, if that is what it is, it's viral and will go away on it's own.

    Also is your baby vaxed? If so sometimes the reactions can be delayed for weeks or months. Just something to think about.

    Of course as Shaina said it may just be heat rash...try powder with cornstarch :)
