16mo eczema?

My DD has had a rash on her torso for a couple of days. I put it down to wearing some clothes washed by my sister in different powder and / or a change in shampoo. It seemed to be fading today but at bath time I noticed it has come up even more on her bottom. It looks a bit like I would think of as eczema, though she's never suffered with this before.

My question is, would a one year old scratch themselves if they were itchy? I've never actually seen DD scratching an itch so I'm not sure how to tell if she's feeling itchy. She's been a bit irritable for the last few days and not slept as well as usual, but has been eating and drinking fine. No temperature or anything. Any advice appreciated!
