Teagan woke up with a few marks on her thighs. I thought they looked like bug bites and although I'm almost 100% sure we don't have bed bugs, I stripped off her sheets and blankets and washed them all...twice! LOL. I put some lotion on Teagan's legs to help with the itchiness, and went about my morning.
Later today, when I was changing her hiney again, I noticed the "bites" had spread all over her legs. The tops of her legs and calves had the same bite type of rash all over them. I thought they were now looked like chicken pox or measles maybe. I called my mom to ask and emailed pictures to her...thank God for moms huh! She thought they looked like an allergic reaction to something and NOT like chicken pox, but told me to take her to the doctor just to be sure so we didn't spread it to Emmersyn if it was something contagious like fifths disease or soemthing like that.
All is good though. Dr. McMonigle said basically the same thing. He wasn't sure what it was but said it wasn't anything contagious and gave us a prescription for a topical oinment and also told us to give her Benedryl to help the ichiness...let's hope it clears up! There's nothing worse than an Itchy girl!
