DS1 (4 mo) has a strawberry birthmark on his inner thigh - well, the join of his thigh and groin really, iyswim. It has been growing steadily since he was born which we were told was normal, but sometimes it looks a bit cracked and redder in places, like it's sore.
Today there was a tiny bit of blood in his nappy, just where the strawberry mark is. Is this normal? Should I be doing anything about it?
He has got nappy rash at the moment, could this be making it sore and more likely to bleed, and can I put anything on it?
Thank you for any advice!
