The rash had spread all over Mr T's poor little body by the time we saw the doctor at 9.40am this morning and we're just so relieved that it's nothing serious! The doctor was pleased that the eczema had almost totally gone and said he has a reaction to something but we're not sure what. It might be that I changed to a non-bio & unperfumed washing powder but we'll never know for sure. We've got another cream to apply at least three times a day which should help. He's been so brave all day despite it being so very itchy and it driving him potty and still gives us lots of smiles and cuddles. Most of the day has been spent re-washing all of his clothes, bedding, towels, blankets and muslins etc to get rid of whatever it is that has set off this reaction.
We've just given him a bath and applied the new cream so that he can go to bed in an hour or so after his skin has calmed down. Daddy is just walking him round the lounge singing to him and having a rather lovely cuddle. Thomas has started giving us kisses this week, he opens his mouth wide open and comes straight for your lips and gives us big wet slobbery kisses.....which we just love!!
Simon and I are both suffering with colds at the moment. Simon's has gone onto his chest and he's now got a rather nasty chest infection which means he is coughing all the time and this really wears him out. He's not getting much sleep bless him but he still finds the energy to warm up my side of the bed in the middle of the night when I've got up to feed Thomas. It is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me and I love him all the more for it!
Morfar has his racing in a Ferarri day tomorrow and Simon & I wish we were there to enjoy it with him but it's too far to go there and back in one day. (Also now he's got this rash he hates the car seat even more than before!). We're looking forward to seeing Morfar and Mormor when they get back and hearing all about it and seeing the photos too.
Fingers crossed Mr T is feeling a lot better tomorrow.
