Terrified my 9 month old (7 month adjusted) premie has leukemia
He’s always had scratching issues when he was 4 months old. Confirmed by dermatologist that it’s eczema but something doesn’t seem right. The purple spots don’t look like eczema it looks like purpura and it’s he’s had it for months and every time he scratches a new spot it’s purple.
Has anyone had this type of experience with the purple spots before?

Corrected vs. Actual
Silly question. But when people ask how old is your baby do you say their corrected age or actual age 😅 I say both

Trident hands ?
Please anyone does this look like trident hands? I brought it up to my pediatrician she said it’s normal. I’m scared because when he was in my womb his femurs measured weeks short (sign of dwarfism) then went back to normal. But his hands look like dwarfism hands to me
