Hi mamas!
My little girl (10.5 months) has had a fever over the past three nights, except last, and now she has a light pinkish rash on her forehead and trunk. She hasn't been acting really sick... just sleepy and weepy and looks a bit "out of it". I haven't been giving her anything except tylenol twice when she fever got up to 39 degrees Celsius... What could this be???

Sounds like Roseola to me.

Fever for a few days followed by a rash are the main signs of it.

It does sound like roseola.

It could also be some other nameless virus - lots of viruses cause a fever, followed by a rash when the virus is "done".

If she is acting okay, I would just watch and wait - sounds like whatever it is is almost over.

Take care!
Nancy
