Well, it happened: your first non-routine visit to the pediatrician. It only took five weeks for us to take advantage of the walk-in hour and sick entrance at your doctor.
You've had a bit of cradle cap and baby acne, which, at your one-month checkup, Dr. Anderson said was completely normal. But a day or two later, your cute little face and head became inflamed. You had splotchy red patches all over your face, neck, and scalp. Your baby acne blew up. Daddy and I worried that you might be allergic to something.
It turns out that seborrhea (cradle cap) had spread to your face and irritated your baby acne.
It was nothing serious, and some expensive cream--that you like to try to lick off your face--rectified the problem in just a few days, but we still felt badly for you. Let us apologize now for the skin issues you're sure to have as a teenager. Even with pimples, you'll still be the most handsome guy ever.
Love you!
Mommy
