Lizzie was also VERY tiny and still is!!! We took some antibiotics with us and ended up having to give them to Lizzie because she had bronchitis when we got her. The doctor at the White Swan diagnosed her!! Good luck!! It looks like the attachment is going great!!!<BR/><BR/>Ann (another DG Mom)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-26863483669604283902009-02-27T21:40:00.000-05:002009-02-27T21:40:00.000-05:00It looks just like the rash I get between my finge...It looks just like the rash I get between my fingers when I eat too many tomatoes. It itches terrible until the blisters break and it heals. I think Lexi's is an allergic reaction to something. Could be the detergent or clothing softner. There was a clinic within the White Swan when we were there in March 07. Best of luck, I hope it goes away soon.<BR/><BR/>Kathi B.Kathi and Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01433039462269546190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-18968994241544643712009-02-27T21:16:00.000-05:002009-02-27T21:16:00.000-05:00I wouldn't worry too much.

She may just have really sensitive skin (I have a little one who breaks out in hives very easily) If she does start running a fever or the rash show up all over her belly. It could possibly be a strep rash? You need an antibiotic for that, but it is not so bad. Keep us posted. She is such a beauty and looks like she is adjusting SO well.<BR/>Many blessings,<BR/>AmyAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10899336515005862996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-53877606512296657032009-02-27T18:53:00.000-05:002009-02-27T18:53:00.000-05:00Geoff looks right at home with that baby girl!

We just used a lot of medicated powder (it was August) and kept it clean and dry and it went away slowly. There is a clinic/doctor at the White Swan that is pretty good, on the 3rd floor I think. They helped us anyway...<BR/>AmyAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13264237085383453416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-75564199977004342502009-02-27T08:35:00.000-05:002009-02-27T08:35:00.000-05:00Wanda, Maybe Lexi's skin is reacting to the soap y...Wanda, Maybe Lexi's skin is reacting to the soap you are using or the laundry detergent her clothes have been washed in. I am sure those are all different then what she has been used to. Ruth gave you good advice as did your sister. I hope the cream helps.. Poor Lexi give yourself and her a hug from me.<BR/><BR/>Susanthe mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17172388785306063172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-10728563785375787582009-02-27T08:12:00.000-05:002009-02-27T08:12:00.000-05:00Ruth, we did get our guide to help.

The cream from the pharmacy has ingredients to help a fungal rash so we will see. I feel better knowing that we are at least doing something. I'll keep you all posted. If it keeps on spreading after using this cream we will seek medical help here. <BR/>Thanks so much! This kind of thing is so worrisome normally but to be away makes it harder. <BR/><BR/>WandaWanda, Geoff and Lexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09080112410310484529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17245933.post-25001626745685177702009-02-27T04:32:00.000-05:002009-02-27T04:32:00.000-05:00Hi wanda and Geoff!I know when kids are sick it is...Hi wanda and Geoff!<BR/>I know when kids are sick it is a nightmare!<BR/>Have you looked at this site?<BR/>http://kidshealth.org/<BR/>it maybe of help.
