    glad to hear it is settling down, poor little thing, cant be comfy having a rash.

    *on a random side note - Yeddi, a friends grandmother told me to take a teaspoon of epsome salts in a cup of warm water to bring on labour. If it has the power to draw out nasties like that, think that is one piece of advice I'm happy to have ignored lol.

    DS1 used to get rashes from grass, until he was about 3 or 4

    Actually UsPlus2, my grandfather used to have a teaspoon of epsom salts once a week without ill effect. It used to be quite a common thing to do in that generation. The reason it draws out toxins is because it is a sulphur, and sulphur binds nasty things like poisons and metals and you would just excrete it out (foods like garlic and onion are also high in sulphur). It was most probably their version of chelation and could bring on labour in the same way as taking something to get your bowels moving I would imagine.

    I thought she would have be fine this morning but she still has a few spots on her face and A LOT on the backs of her arms. No temp and none on her torso, some on her feet though. SO it is definitely just the exposed areas from yesterday. Will link a photo in a min.
    I have made her a Drs appt at 10.45am.

    HERE it is.

    Looks like hives to me, but the photo is not that great. Let us know how you got on with the doctors.
