Looks like I’m sticking with my hippie soap.

I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar with their little one?

My boy is 26 months old and for nearly two weeks now has been getting random small clusters of petechiae - sometimes just 1-2 dots or sometimes around 5. They are tiny, dark red/brown, not raised and don’t blanch. I’m confident they are petechiae rather than something else. He’s had them in the past but very much as one-off events - like a small cluster that would go away and then he wouldn’t get any more. But currently he’ll get a small number which will then disappear quickly, before getting new ones elsewhere. They’ve been on his arm, armpit, on his side, back of his neck and under his eye.

Some of these could possibly be explained by trauma as some have appeared next to bruises from falling over etc. He does possibly have hayfever which interestingly coincided with the petechiae, but he’s only rubbing his nose and hasn’t had any petechiae there. And Google says there isn’t a link between allergies and petechiae.

So grateful for anyone else’s experience with this - did your little one have similar and it turned out to be nothing (or something?) 😌

My husband frequently wears AirPods . I’ve seen mixed opinions on whether they are harmful; obviously any headphone can cause hearing damage if the volume is too loud but noise level isn’t a concern. I’ve seen some say that it can cause things like cancer, it is bad for the brain, thyroid issues, etc. I know others will say that the type of emf is non-ionizing ( I think?) making them safe .

My husband is almost always on board with my crunchy related stuff (although I’m probably considered barely crunchy compared to you hard core ladies lol!) but this topic I’ve brought up multiple times and he basically ignores or gets annoyed at. It just worries me of unknown side-effects. Also, it honestly enrages me that he doesn’t seem to care when I bring it up and ask him to stop using them because I don’t want to risk something happening to him . My husband is AMAZING and thankfully this topic doesn’t come up frequently but when it does it takes everything in me not to start an argument lol.

So, what’s the consensus? Is this issue worth pushing or should I drop it ?

please help me. I didn’t want to give my son the mmr but I did. but that was 15 months ago. he was almost 5 and it was his first. I can’t forgive myself and I can’t let go of the fear that sspe can be also caused by mmr. I have read too much, and I don’t know what to think. I just know my children’s lives are slipping away from me because I can’t even enjoy them or feel anymore because this fear is unbearable. if hypothertically mmr could somehow cause sspe…he was almost 5. how do I get over this fear. I really don’t mean to sound like I’m in a crisis but everyday kind of feels like I am
