@ArmahnisMommy It's gotten worse throughout the day. She hasn't eaten anything out of the ordinary, and the temperature inside is cool.

Fate

@Mom2ING No, nothing. She just says it's really itchy.

Maybe chicken pox?
I'm not sure but I would try to get her in to see a dr tomorrow...

Fate

No fever, no throat problems, the inside temperature is a steady 67. @ripKaydence

Fate

@LittleFae, @ArmahnisMommy I looked up pox and measles, no blisters. Looks nothing like either of them. That was my first guess!

ripKaydence

@fate what's her body temp?

Fate

Also, hers eyes are puffy as you can kinda see in the picture. (

ripKaydence

TTake her to the doc first thing in the morning and keep her hydrated

Fate

@ripKaydence Her temp has been between 98.4 and 98.9.

Try benadryl. If ut gies away w in an hour its an allergic reaction to something. If it doesnt go away then maybe somethingvworse.

mommyof3girls

Sorry about all the typos. My kids had hives all over from an allergic reactions to meds last week and thats what doc told me anyhow. Walmart had a generic benadryl for kids for like 2 bucks.

Fate

I have been giving her benedryl every 4 hours since 4am. It has not helped one bit. It has only gotten worse. Gave her a bath, then a cool shower twice today. She gets no relief! @mommyof3girls

ripKaydence

@mommyof3girls OMG I didn't think of that! Great suggestion!

MOMMYSBambino

Look a little like chicken pox

mommyof3girls

Oh my. U should get her seen soon then. I hope she feels better soon. Poor baby.

Give her an oatmeal bath it'll help with the itch. Just fill the tube up and 2-4 pack of Oatmeal and let her soak

Is she in school or daycare? Could b some sort of mites (sounds yucky) but, i know sometimes kids will get scabies and stuff like that from school.

Fate

@HomeBirthAdvocate I have tried the antihistamine all day. I will try calamine lotion. Thank you. Whenever my kids have a rash, the medicine always work. It was mentioned to me that it could be coming from within? Like a virus?

Fate

@ripKaydence, she had an oatmeal bath today. I soaked her for an hour. And I did 6 packets.

mommyof3girls

Oh ya know what (sorry to keep posting) my nephew got a rash a couple weeks ago and he ended up having strep throat.....?

Fate

@mommyof3girls No school or daycare. Also, her throat isn't irritated and she is only complaining of the itch.

mommyof3JAC

Poison ivy oak or sumac! That's What I would say.
