hmmm...I wonder if Grace has chicken pox.
Does anybody mind if I pass out?

Did they break out on her torso first, Kat? Check her temp, too.

Amy, no fever. And no, the rash originated on her leg and then her arm.
But with benadryl and an oatmeal bath, the original inflammation that is left looks like pimples, they are still there and they are on her torso.
I'm fucked up because i'm like, "well, if it's chicken pox then at least it's not what I fed her."
I have guilt and worry around her feedings.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Heat rashes and just general irritation rashes tend to get little blistery pimply things on me.

Because books.
Yeah, but with feedings you *need* to know about allergies, because you'd need to stop giving that food. Chicken pox, if that's what it is, will pass.
You've got a big job feeding her, lady. And you're doing awesomely.

They aren't blistery. They're little angry dots of unbroken skin that say SCRATCH ME.
Yeah. I know. K was like, "Well I'm not taking her to the ER because even if she has chicken pox, they aren't going to do anything about it."
Great.
okay. going to bed. Paranoia is not a beautiful or efficacious thing.

Ugh Kat. I'm hoping it all looks better in the morning.
One thought: my kids got impetigo once. It was a rash, little red dots all over them, esp arms and torso. It wasn't bad except it took the doctors over a week to accurately diagnose it, and then two more weeks until it had cleared, and I had to keep them home from school for the whole time because it was communicable.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Is the (grown up) rash from things rubbing/chafing? I don't know if I have the right equipment to comment, but I use antiperspirant to keep my sports bras from creating rashes on short runs, and a similar product called Body Glide on longer ones.
