Chicken pox? Eczema? Heat rash?

Hi, has anyone ever encountered this? His head has these rashes-scalp-blisters-pus and his body has red dots. It starts with a little red dot then worsened. The doctor keeps saying either hormones/heat rashes and will go off soon. But it seems to be worse. Any tips to handle this? I tried QV moisturizer,milk bath etc #advicepls #pleasehelp #firstbaby #firsttimemom

Chicken pox? Eczema? Heat rash?

If it’s heat rash, you shouldnt be putting moisturizer on it. Instead, just keep the skin dry. Did doctor give you any cream or ask you to apply moisturizer?

Has anyone ever encountered this rash on the little one's body? Is it heat rash or others? Will it subside by itself or do I need to go and see the doctor for a cream or something? It starts from his cheek towards his neck now his whole body has it

Heat rash?

Oh no. Looks similar to my baby too. Might consider cooling clothes like cotton (mine are mothercare short sleeve). and watch out especially when using baby carrier as the heat from body gets trapped. Dont overdress baby on warm days like socks pants hats all too. If its not too bad can moisturise liberally after each bath (currently on QV moisturiser). Try to avoid steroids for now first. unless super serious and dr recommended in the end i found out my baby had eczema so heat and friction just made things worse. Can try to rule out fungal infections too or even breastmilk or saliva dripping.

Eek. Sounds like a flange size issue. I pumped and kept on getting blisters. Sometimes its the size of ur nipple to the opening of the pump. Sometimes its over pumping so reduce to ten or fifteen minutes per breast. Just dont burst it might get bad. let it resolve on its own first?

Is it possible to relactate when baby is already 4mo?

Hi mummies! It has been 2 weeks since I last bf/pump due to personal reasons. However, now i’m willing to try again but as expected, little or no milk will come out when I pump and my 4mo LO is not that willing to nurse. How do I overcome this? Is it possible to relactate?

Yes, but it will require more time, effort, motivation and determination. Try power pumping and don’t skip sessions (even if there is little to no milk). This is to signal your body that you need the milk as it works on supply and demand.

What kind of fabric or pillow you use for sleeping for eczema baby? I think my lo is allergy to it

What kind of mattress etc

there are a lot of anti allergy mattresses in the market.. if your baby is less than 1 year old don’t need pillow, it’s dangerous even. increases the risk of SIDS

Baby crying during sleep

Hi mummies, my 3m baby been crying while she is asleep. This happen sometimes during her day nap and night sleep. She will wake up between 4-6AM crying until she gets her pacifier. This continues through the timing stated meaning, she will wake up a few times and will only sleep well around 6 plus am. Has anyone ever experience this? Many thanks

yes it’s very normal, it’s called colic
