That looks awful. I hope they get everything straightened out

tomorrow. I'm glad they want to see her right away. Let us know

how it goes.

's ped said it was an infection and he prescribed an antibiotic

cream. He didn't say it had a name, but when I was checking out and

looking at the papers to bring to the checkout desk, under diagnosis

it said impetigo. He never mentioned that word to me. I have been

using the cream and it looks better but now her cheek by her mouth

looks bad and is sorta " wet " all the time. Not from drool either.

Ugh!!! I hate doctors sometimes.

Hi Steph,

The only thing I know of impetigo is that it is very contagious. And can easily spread. Poor peanut. I hope it clears up soon.
