Hello,
I'm hesitant to come on Mumsnet for medical advice, but I've been to a GP and felt I was dismissed. My baby keeps getting red spots on his torso and I don't know what it is. They come and go and are in different patterns. Could this be an allergy?
He's really difficult at the moment. Despite a good first 6 weeks of solids, the last two months he's refused solids apart from yoghurt and some fruit purees. He's waking up at night screaming and very difficult to settle. He seems to have had a cold for a good month, but HV said it doesn't look like a viral rash.
He's still on aptamil stage 1, never had any problems with CMPA, so would be confused if it was a milk/dairy allergy. If it was another food, I'd be confused because he eats so little!
Any ideas? I'd like to go to another GP with a good set of questions. The one I saw just said babies get lots of spots and rashes because their skin is sensitive, but it gets better. I just seem to think it's something else...

I know this is a fairly recent post but have you found out what’s causing this? My 10 month old has something similar
