Ah! Roseola....

This is what I saw tonight in the bath. A rash. I then had the ah-ha moment, roseola.

Roseola , also kown as sixth disease, is a viral infection that affects infants, usually between the ages of six months to a year. Starts off with a runny nose (check), high fever (yup we got there 40C/104F), fever then dissipates and the rash appears! Yup, there is the rash! It starts in the middle of the body and then spreads outward. Well, he is irritable and clingy but this is one viral infection under his belt, and generally once you have it you usually don't get it again.Yeah for natural immunity!
