Glad everything is resolved for you and your LO. We are on day 4 and she seems SO much better except for her appetite. Pretty sure she's lived off of breast milk, cheese, Cheerios and blueberries for the last 3 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1817754 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 08:47:52 +0000 photojane 1817754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ocean girl: it spiked to 102, but was around 100 for most of the 2-3 days she had a fever. Definitely not as high as when she had an ear infection. I think Sadie just had a mild case, hence the more mild rash. That rash looks pretty mild too. Some kids are covered and it's awful.</p> <p>Sadie's much better! 2 or 3 days after the rash appeared she was completely back to normal. Hopefully now that the rash has appeared, your sweet girl will be feeling better soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1817693 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 08:21:33 +0000 Ocean girl 1817693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: quick question - how high was your LO's fever? DD had 3 days of low-grade fever and now has a rash almost identical to the belly pick you posted. I'm also thinking Roseola but when I've looked it up, Dr Google tells me the fever is usually quite high.<br /> Hope your LO is feeling better.<br /> Oh, and here's a pic of what the rash looks like on her back. </p> [attach=2531/14/nacns3.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1812513 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 17:32:50 +0000 photojane 1812513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: the red spot is still there, but she doesn't seem bothered by it. It's actually completely flat except for a bump in the middle, so I don't think it's eczema. She has her 18m appointment next week, so if he doesn't get worse before then, I'll ask then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1812505 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 17:31:00 +0000 photojane 1812505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: rash is still there, but it's mild! She had really rough morning, but after a 4 hour nap, I think she's on the upswing! So ready to be done with this. The fussiness has been out of control. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1812318 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 16:05:54 +0000 swurlygurl 1812318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: Haha - that's what I was wondering too!!</p> <p>I hope she's feeling better today - any progress on that red spot? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1812282 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 15:52:32 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1812282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: how's S doing today? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810636 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 21:21:17 +0000 JessKas 1810636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO had roseola last week, and her chest looked just likebthat. The arm rash looks like something else though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810611 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 21:06:50 +0000 ladybee 1810611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: I googled it. OMG. Why are so many people naked? :silly:</p> <p>Eta: no advice, just hope your LO feels better soon </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810583 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 20:44:50 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1810583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: K just was diagnosed with roseola today! Her belly/chest looks exactly like that...but not the other mark on her arm. We were about 3 days of fever, a day off, then the rash today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810506 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:55:03 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1810506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: her belly/chest looks like roseola to me, but not the red mark on her arm!</p> <p>I'd get her looked at for both just as a precaution! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810460 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:36:52 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1810460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: I've made that mistake before!

Maybe this is just a new patch of eczema, and unrelated to the roseola? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810441 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:30:11 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1810441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That looks like something I had once. My dermatologist told me it appears after you've been sick. I had a large spot too, which she said was the origin. Let me see if I can remember the name of it.</p> <p>ETA: here is what I had <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pityriasis-rosea/basics/definition/con-20028446" rel="nofollow">http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pityriasis-rosea/basics/definition/con-20028446</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810437 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:28:48 +0000 SleepyMonkey 1810437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>agree, her chest rash does look like roseola but her arm isn't. maybe eczema? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810435 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:27:40 +0000 Ginabean3 1810435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her chest looks like roseola, but the arm bump does not!!! Hope you can find out from your dr. what it is!! Get well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810405 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:06:49 +0000 tinyperson 1810405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with @oliviaoblivia: the arm bump definitely doesn't looked like roseola... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810404 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:06:20 +0000 photojane 1810404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, just realized how bad the pictures are. It was dark in her room. She's asleep now, so I can't take new ones. Hopefully they're good enough to be able to help a sister out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810403 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:06:00 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1810403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her chest looks like roseola, but that arm bump definitely does not. I'd call the doctor on that one. Poor girl, she was just there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/roseola-5#post-1810396 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:03:57 +0000 photojane 1810396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone's LO had roseola? Sadie had a fever Thursday-Saturday. No fever yesterday or today. No other symptoms. When putting on her PJ's tonight I realized she has a rash on her tummy/chest and back, and a smaller round rash bright red rash on her arm. </p> <p>Do these pictures look like roseola to you? If it is, I know there's nothing to be done at this point. But, she still seems miserable - very clingy and cranky. Does it hurt her? If your LO had it, how long until back to normal?</p> <p>If it doesn't look like roseola to you, what could it be? </p> [attach=1879/14/na62vh.450x600.image-1-.jpeg] [attach=1879/14/na62vl.450x600.image.jpeg]
