Has your ur baby had a viricella-zoster vaccine recently?

So that may rule out shingles that I had in my thirties due to stress. Shingles typically stays on one side of the body and follows the nerves.

Fever?

Maybe you could try showing the rash to a pharmacist? You might need to call ahead to the pharmacy to make sure the actual pharmacist is present, but they would be trained to identify a rash.

Look up:
Fifth's disease
Roseola
Food allergies
Check your baby for symptoms. Try benedryl to see if that helps.

I don't believe fifths itches at all. It is on the cheeks and hands usually.

Has your baby recently been vaccinated?

@Fadeaway, I asked the same abut the viricella-zoster vaccine. I think Casey left maybe?

 

[Casey_03]

Yeah, he's up to date on vaccinations

 

[Fadeaway]

Could be, shows she is still on though, she might have gotten up to take care of LM. There are so many possibilities but the viricella-zoster is a live vaccine right? So people who are not immune can get it, from a recently vaccinated person. I could be wrong, and totally open to clarification if I am.

edit: I am a little slow. @Casey_03 have you had chicken pox or have you been vaccinated in the last 5 years?

Um, it is kinda dangerous trying to diagnose what this is and whether it's serious like this.... Even I'm starting to itch reading these messages!!
