Rash over body

Does anyone have any ideas what this rash could be? Is it a call to the doctor or just see if it disappears itself with no other symptoms making themselves present?

I noticed it last night and it was all over her stomach and back .. there is now spots over her legs too but they are abit fainter.

My baby has just recovered from a bad cold and an ear infection - she has been taking amoxicillin for the past 6/7 days and has been fine. She still has a bit of a cough and a runny nose and is quite clingy/fussy throughout the day at the moment.

I haven’t changed any washing powder and she hasn’t had any different foods in the last few days to what she normally eats.

Hello, it most likely is a viral rash from the viruses she's had recently, however it could be a rash from the amoxicillin. Either way, I'd call your out of hours GP to be checked over. Not because I think anything is very wrong, but just because it's good to get these things checked and they will always want to see a young child.
Let us know how you get on!

Thanks so much - it’s so hard being a first time mum .. I feel like it’s illness after illness and we are only just heading into the winter.

I’ll give them a call this morning - thanks again :)
