[~ Zarava Flutterby ~]

I find mine get that rash from too many acidic foods - juice, tomatoes, mandarines...
HTH

Hmm mandarine addiction?
Hope someone has some ideas for you Hun.

forgot to add she has had nasty poos for awhile now (corresponds with the pregnancy). thought it was teething, then my milk maybe changing, then the addition of more solids, dairy? i really have no idea.
they are that bad they burn her skin where it touches (and we change her straight away), she has never had a prob with nappy rash until the last couple of months.

have considered the fruit tomatoes, mandarin (she loves both) but we cut them out for couple days and she was still getting the rash.

you could try A2 milk or oat or rice milk (oat milk is nicer)

I took DD to see the MCHN this morning. We talked through the times when the rash has come up strongly, and each time could be due to something that was with the dairy (strawberry yogurt -she has reacted slightly to strawberry before) cream pasta sauce (had tomatoes and other stuff in it).

Also, found that she has two more top teeth through (not the middle 4 teeth but the ones on the side) and 2 bottom ones coming through- this could explain rash (dribbling) and poos and nappy rash.

So, not cutting out dairy yet but watching more what she is eating and when the rash comes up. I have another appt in couple of weeks.

Where would i find A2 milk or oat milk or other alternatives? Our IGA doesn't have them but i have coles and safeway nearby. Would these suprmarkets sell them? Are they kept in fridge where the cows milk is kept?

Just throwing it out there.. DD's eczema flares up on her face with constant cleaning/wiping. Im just thinking that with more yogurt etc, shes getting messier and you are having to wipe her face more often and not realising IYKWIM? I cant use brought wipes or facewashers at all on her face.

Could be contributing too! DD thinks its fun to pull wipes out of the packet and pretend to blow her nose at the moment. (Note to self: hide wipes from DD).

As a young bub, i brushed over her face with wet nappy wipe and she came up in a rash straight away. Might go back to just water and cloth wipes to see if that helps too.
