    wat should i do?

    DS has a rash but i havent seen the full extent of it its like little red mozzie bites but red and hes sleeping i dont know if i should wake him up or let him sleep he doesn have a fever as far as i can tell should i take him to the doctor because the only way he would see a doctor today is if i took him to the hospital and they called the doctor to get him in i hate living in a country town and im worried but my irst issue is do i wak him up or let him sleep?

    wake him up hun, take a good look at him and see how bad teh rash is and where it is.

    is it hot where you are today?

    has he eaten anything new or been using a new soap or cream?
    been playing in the garden?

    i know what country towns are like.

    if it enough to make you concerned go to the hospital.

    i hope it is just a heat rash and nothing serious...

    I'd let him sleep. I think he would be awake and grumpy if it was bothering him. If you're worried about him when he is awake and the rash hasn't settled down at all I would definitely take him to the Dr.
    I am not one to wake a sleeping child though.

    Good to hear hun. Glad he is ok. I know what it is like living in a country area... where we used to live we would have to go to the hospital most of the time, and the 5+hr waits were never pleasent.
