it could be something called thrush. my son had it terrible when he was a baby. its a yeast infection. its caused by the formula or even an antibiotic your baby may have been on. my son got it in his throat, all over his mouth, tongue and around his mouth, even on his cheeks. it took a bit too get rid of it, but go to the doctor and ask. they have medicine for it that works. now about it being on her stomach, i am not sure. i dont know that they'd get thrush on their stomach but i am guessing anything is possible. gl to you and i'd check it out soon, if it is thrush your baby has, its very uncomfortable for the child.

Probably a rash from saliva, like someone else said.
Try putting Vaseline on the areas to keep them dry f she is drooling a lot, but honestly, the best thing to do with rashes on babies and young children is have a doctor look at them.

Could be a heat rash or acne. Yes, babies can get acne. If the spots start to spread and/or you're really concerned about it, make a doc. appointment. Sounds like this is your first child, so I hope you don't feel like you are overreacting. All first time parents do that.

Is the redness lacy looking and is it on her cheek any? Fifth's Disease is going around really bad right now...my daughter just got over it.

it's probably from the drool coming in contact with the skin. but, be on the safe side and take baby to the ped

i am pretty sure that babies can get a body rash when they are teething, but call her pediatrician to be sure.
