I am so stressed out, My 7 week old has wokenbup with this, what is this? She’s exclusively breastfed so cannot be a formula allergy.

It looks like just some baby acne/skin irritation. Mine gets the same thing on her chest, arms, and face. It goes away in a couple days! The pediatrician gave me some baby Eucerin and that helps a ton!

my girl had this, like hannah said it looks just like baby acne
i gave my girl a breastmilk bath and it cleared up

Can’t comment on the rash other than to do the glass test. But just to add that breastfed babies can have allergies through breastmilk if mum consumes allergens like dairy x

Mine used to have similar every now & again and it was a heat rash(usually summer months), it would disappear in a couple of days. Is the room she's in too hot? Is she wearing too many layers?Have you done the glass test too?

I used to leave mine in a baby grow or just nappy & monitor the room temperature. With
both my little ones, it was heat rash & looked just like your picture. Do you have anything like 111 NHS helpline to check symptoms? Mine were well within themselves (no fever, feeding well, normal pee/poo, active etc) is your little one well otherwise apart from rash?

Cleared up usually in 1 or 2 days

My first baby had that few times after I had soya, I think she was intolerant to it so I removed it from my diet and she hasn’t had it again.

Have you used a different body wash for her / clothes wash or anything like that xx
