Rinse the rashes with warm water to help kill germs first. Then dry it off gently and put a little baby powder on it. Giv eit air..it'll heal. If it's not too cold where you are, use a fan. My neice had somthing similar and it took about 26 hours for it to clear up. Take her to the emergency room if you think it's somthing serious, but with a rash I'd wait to see if it clears up, and if not take her to the pediatrician on monday. Good Luck!
It's just best to take her to your pediatrician.
Wouldn't you trust your pediatrician more than random strangers on the internet with your baby's health?
