Jackson has got a red rash under his bottom lip, all over his chin. I assume it is from all the dribbling, probably related to teething the way he wants to chew anything that flies past his mouth.

But he also has a bit of a rash on the rest of his face. Can this also be from teething? I can't imagine what else it would be from.

He's just changed formula to neocate, and it would be exceedingly rare for him to be allergic to that... but what if he is? Eek!

Did anyone else's bubs get a rashy face with teething?

PLUS we have our Momentz photos on Saturday. No rash please Jackson!!!

might be worth checking it's not eczema....Natalie's eczema started as what I thought was a dribble rash, but then spread to the rest of her face and body Infantile eczema shows up at 4-6 months. really hope it's not for your sake (given all the dramas you've been through), but if it is, it's better to act sooner rather than later.

It sounds like excema to me, too. But if it just looks like a rash, it's simply a matter of keeping the area dry (haha) and applying moisturising cream from time to time. If it's red and patchy instead of just standard excema, you'll need to talk to your dr.

Jayden has an icky rash on his chin I took him to the Dr cause I thought it was ringworm! but it was dribble rash I put pawpaw cream and barrier cream on it - so hard to keep it dry with the constant dribble!

Noah's eczema was the same. Take him to the dr Laurie and they should prescribe you something with a steroid in it that should clear it up really quickly (in time for photos).
