h_postmortemus discovered some blue pinprick sized spots on sylvia. it looked odd, but she has not been showing any other trouble signs (fever, listlessness, not being a really happy baby) so we decided to wait and see if they were still there today. well, they were. it's just on one leg, which was very intriguing to the doctors[1]. meningitis has been ruled out as have assorted nasty sounding metabolic disorders. it looks from the blood count like she might be on the mend from a mild virus which would make some sense. in the end, i was reassured that none of the really bad things the doc would look for are present, but to call immediately if the spots move, a fever develops or 'she changes a hair'. sigh. accidental smooshing and ill-handling have been ruled out. the ruling theory is that somehow she might have gotten her foot trapped in high chair or crib.
[1] ped one brought in ped two to observe the spots.
