ok my one month old son started getting this rash 5 days ago. well it started on the right side of his forehead. i wasn't sure what it was and i thought it was something he was allergic to. we had recently added fabric softner to our clothes and figured it was that. well i bathed him and put clothes on not washed with that. the rash went away within an hour. we went to sleep and the next day there was nothing. 2 days later i had him wrapped up for his nap and when he woke up i fed him and i noticed a rash on the left side of his forehead/temple area. the rash is like a cluster of bumps. both time the bumps went into his scalp. well like before i tried to figure out where this outbreak came from. i thought it was an allergy again but i narrowed that possibitity out. i then thought maybe it was heat rash b/c i took him out of his onesie he had on while i prepped a bath for him. well in the few min i was away his rash subsided. as i was still gettign things ready for a bath my mom picked him up and was carrying him around well the rash picked back up again on the side of his head that was against her skin. we figured it was heat rash. i bathed him and put him down. the rash seemed to have gone away. not fully. well over the days it just got worst. now it's all over his face. today it progressed to his neck area. i don't think it's an allergy b/c we narrowed it all out and wouldn't the rash spread all over his body? well, i figured baby acne but would it come and go within a few min like described? or baby eczema but it's not dry or scaly. baby seborrhea but it's not dry either. can you help me figure out what this is. i am taking him to the doc on monday but just for now i just want to have an idea if anyone has gone thru this.
Your baby is fine. Every baby is going tru this, nothing wrong with this. I wanted to show my baby to the doc when I saw that rash but it went away and appeared couple days later and now it's completely gone. This is cause by hormones that baby gor from mom.

Have you eliminated soap, perfume, lotion, or anything else you are putting on your own skin? The fact that it got worse after your mom held him makes me think it could be an allergy to something y'all are using on your own bodies.
It is baby acne, when my son would cry it would get worse. But after a bath it would go away. My daughter had it and it would intensify when she was hot or mad. i know its hard not to worry about it but it will got away with time. Do not put lotion or anything on it just keep the skin clean and dry and it will got way with time. Good luck!
