| arms and legs which I also notice looks a bit rashy today anyone got any idea what can be causing this? I have recently changed his soap to Johnson's baby soap after using the Johnson's milk bath so am going to change back to see if that fixes it but I find it rather weird that it's only arms and legs and not all over if it was the soap. |

has he been hanging out in just a bodysuit? or shorts and a tee? maybe he's just rubbing against carpet or grass etc more than when fully clothed? Otherwise the rash could maybe be a heat rash and not related to the dry skin. -------------

I had to come in here as see where this thread was leading 
I'm with Marisa. Or have you put sunscreen on just his arms & legs or some other cream on just those parts? ------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

Tom gets this too and I thought it might be eczema or an allergy to grass. Doc thought it looked like carpet burn ...she suggested a thin smear of vaseline
