Now look what happened :(

[Googsmom aka Jennifer]

This am I had just filled up Brooks cereal and raisens, turned around to flip the big girls french toast and walk back to Brooker and she looked like this. Under 3 minutes. Not a reaction from the cereal or raisen she eats them every morning untill mommy has coffee and can function to make her breakfast.

I called the doc and she said it most likely Rololio... Ravioloi... Rondolooio.... something like that but for the life of me i cant remember the name to google it.

******What is the name girls/boys??******
I pray some one knows how to spell it.

The doc said if it's still there tomorrow to bring her in. Should I just wait or go to the hosp? My poor girl is freeking mommy out this week I tell ya!!!!
She looks worse than she acts. She has been in a pretty decent mood all day and even went to the farm to do chores w/ momma. The doc said it would be ok to do b/c i was closer to the hosp if she became worse

Oh my goodness! I am sorry I don't know what that is but i hope it goes away soon or I would definitely take her to the doctor. I just might ads that I would probably keep her out of the sun until this goes away, it may irritate the rash a little.

Good luck and let us know what you find out.

WOW!!! I have seen this before and it was Rosiola (sp?)...My daughter had it, daughter #2...and I remember thinking it was chicken pox...What a SHOCK this must have been to see this! I'm so sorry you are having such a rough week, could this be in response to her fever?
I sure hope it clears up....I would certainly bring her in tomorrow if not cleared by 8am!!!
Please let us know!

Thats the word!!!!! Yea Thanks!!!!

This is what I found. Thanks again for the correct spelling!!! Now i'm just wondering where in the world did she get this?

If your child is exposed to someone with roseola and becomes infected with the virus, it generally takes a week or two for signs and symptoms of infection to appear — if they appear at all. It's possible to become infected with roseola, but have signs and symptoms too mild to be readily noticeable. Roseola symptoms may include:

Fever. Roseola typically starts with a sudden, high fever — often greater than 103 F (39.4 C). Some children may also have a slightly sore throat, runny nose or cough along with or preceding the fever. Your child may also develop swollen glands in his or her neck along with the fever. The fever lasts for three to seven days.

Rash. Once the fever subsides, a rash typically appears — but not always. The rash consists of many small pink spots or patches. These spots are generally flat, but some may be raised. There may be a white ring around some of the spots. The rash usually starts on the chest, back and abdomen and then spreads to the neck and arms. It may or may not reach the legs and face. The rash, which isn't itchy or uncomfortable, can last from several hours to several days before fading.

Sorry to see she has roseola.............but you know what? That girl is beautiful; even totally covered in a rash!!

[danikins]

Oh your precious love. When I saw the photos I thought roseola too. Dani got it when she was younger. Hope she is on the mend soon. She is so beautiful. And you are a wonderful mother. Take care of her and yourself and keep us posted.
Hugs,

Thanks everybody Brook is on the mend. She has no more rash. Back to her old cutie pie self That was scary how quickly it happened. Nannoseconds really Thanks again for thinking of my Brookster. I still cant figure out who she came in contact with who had it At least it's over now!!

[kellyds]

I agree that she's adorable, even covered in a rash!

By the time the rash appears, the disease is OVER. Several of my kids have had this, and it's a mild illness . . . thank goodness.

[lorraine]

Oh poor Brook , what alot of spots
My middle one had it about a year ago and it really is quite shocking how fast they appear LOL
Glad to hear she is better now.

Hey wouldn't it be cool to just e-mail a pic to the doc and get a diagnosis? I'm glad little Brooker is spot-free & you never even noticed the fever. It must have been mild and while she slept. One of mine had that once - can't remember which one But the rash is the end of it as Kelly said, and it can't really be diagnosed until then. Funny thing - one of those that the fear is worse than the reality.
