  2. Please let me know what this rash is? A full term baby born vaginally. No complications during pregancy. Mom GBS positive, inadequate treatment. She had borderline low platelets (cause not known). Baby was pale, hypoperfused at birth needing fluid bolus. Admitted for "rule out sepsis". A rash (see attached) noted at birth. Itchy. Blanching with pressure. Papulo-erythematous over face, trunk. None noted on palms, soles, diaper area. Some part of rash appeared scaly after 24 hours. Any ideas what this rash is? Baby's CBC was normal with normal platelet count.

    Dear colleagues, I observe a baby from ELBW group with progressive gemangiomas in heir area of heard (4*5*1,7 cm). Now she is 4,5 month old (corrected 42 weeks), with 3200 g of weigh. Hemangiomas is tolerated to prednisolon therapy for a 1 month period. Now we want to use propranonlol. What was a smallest weight for propronalol use in your practice. Likewise we have a baby weighted 2000g (birth weight 780 g)with large progressive plate hemangiomas of forearm (8*7 cm).
