My DS is also 6mos old. I haven't ever seen anything like that, I would suggest giving your ped a call and see what he/she says. Good Luck hope it clears up soon!!

I'd check w/ your ped - doesn't sound urgent - I'd call Mon. Kind of sounds like excema.

My son was 3 months when he started to have that. I took him to the ped who told me to put hydrocortisone cream on it once a day. I did that and it went away. It came back a few more times so I just reapplied and eventually it went away for good.

I would call your Ped ASAP. It could be that he's allergic to the detergent you are using.
