Help - 17 month old has blotchy rash on her tummy - what should I do?

She is fine in every other way. Put her to bed about an hour ago and noticed the rash. She sometimes gets a little rash here and there but not as big as this. Haven't tried the meningitis glass thing. Was thinking of waking her in an hour or so and seeing if it had spread? TIA

Has she just had the MMR jab?

Heat rash?

Describe the rash....

Thanks for your response. She had MMR at 13 months. Have just got her up. Rash on tummy is hardly evident now. Couple of spots on her arms faded in glass test. The rash was a blotchy red rash - a few blotches on her tummy. She seems fine otherwise so we'll just keep an eye on her.

Good glad things are fine. Doesn't sound like heat rash, keep an eye but sleep well now!
