Rash On Ivy's Face and Chest?

There's this rash on Ivy's face and chest.
I brought it up with the doctor, but she said she didn't know what it was.

Eczema runs in my family.
My father had it, and my brother Timmy & sister Darcee both had it when they were babies & kids.
But the rash Ivy has doesn't really look like eczema.

It looks like a buncha reddish bumps all over the place.
Some are bunched up in one area, and the rest are just scattered all over the place.

Does anyone know what this could be?

Her f*ckin doctor is an IDIOT.
Excuse me.

I wanna like strangle her.
I need to find her a new doctor, cuz I can't stand the one she's got now.

Ugh!!

Thanks girls.
I think you're right.

She refused to sleep anywhere but on my chest last night and now it's all over the side of her face that she slept on.

I'll look into that lotion stuff.

Thanks again.

Well, does it look like tiny zits?  red ones?  Cause it could be baby acne which goes away on it's own and don't pop them...  Her pours are working on their own, this happens to all kids at some point before their 1.

If it was exzema it's be patches of dry and flakey stuff.  I believe you probably know what it lookd like though, but really sounds like acne.  You can put some  Eucerin Cream/Lotion on it.  If it happens to be another form of exzema it'll disappear with that lotion!  But vaseline works, and other wise you could just let it be!

When they snuggle with you, and your body oils get on them, it'll cause the acne,. since their pours are so small, they break out extremely easy!
