Latex nipples - Has anyone's baby had an allergic reaction..?

Rash? If so, what did it look like.





My daughter developed a rash (bumpy, blotchy, non-itchy) around her mouth and cheeks, seemingly, after I started her on latex nipples earlier this week.





She also has a minor infant yeast rash and i'm wondering if she somehow transferred it to her face?





Experienced Moms - I need you advice!Latex nipples - Has anyone's baby had an allergic reaction..?
It could be because of the nipples. My daughter often got the bumps around her mouth area because of all the area being wet from sweat and heat. If she has a mild yeast rash i would ask your doctor to see if it may be thrush which is curable just a bummer for you if she has it then u would have to go out and get new bottles and nipples and nuks if she uses one. best thing to do is consult your pediatrician when you have any doubt if there is something that may be wrong with your child.Latex nipples - Has anyone's baby had an allergic reaction..?
Latex allergies are extremely serious. You should have her tested and then alert your local hospitals as to her having this allergy (if she does). The hospitals sometimes use latex tubings (for intubations - in extreme emergencies) and this could actually kill your daughter if she has an allergy to latex. This is also why many hospitals are now going to latex free environments and don't allow people to bring in latex balloons to patients. Please take this seriously! This is something she could potentially die from if she has an allergy. Get her checked and check with your doctor regarding her potential to having this allergy and what to do about it.
why are you using latex nipples when silicone nipples are better people rarely use latex nipples again take your baby to a doctor if you are really concerned
