    I'd guess HFM as well. Can be a few spots or lots. My DD had a mild case, started on her bottom with a few on her cheeks and then a few more on the back of her thighs. They looked like little round bites to begin with, then developed very small pustules in the middle. The DD of a GF had a terrible dose, her entire nappy region was absolutely covered (including inside her vagina) as well as cheeks, hands, feet and back of her thighs. DD actually caught it from her (we think!) so we were grateful to get a mild dose.

    When she wakes up i'll have another look, one of the spots had a small white pustule in the middle sort of like a tiny pimple. I don't think there were any others.

    I think definitely a trip to the doctors tomorrow.

    My poor little girl

    My first thought after reading your post (before reading replies) was hand foot and mouth. A friends dd had it just last week so if you're in wa it is possibly going around its pretty contagious. But not really as terrible as it sounds (usually) my older 2 had it when dd2 was about 8months and she didn't even get it, they only had a few spots for a couple of days/week. Hope you find out what it is and she's better really soon
