Coleen Garcia on seeing Baby Amari's rashes: “Of course I got so praning!”

Actress Coleen Garcia is slowly adjusting to her new life as a mom to 1-week-old son Baby Amari.

But one morning, Baby Amari's face was filled with rashes prompting the usually calm Coleen to switch to panic mode and document her experience on Instagram.

She said, “I just want to share.

"After a couple of days, he [Amari] started to get rashes and of course, I got so praning.

"I showed them to our midwife, OB-GYN, and pediatrician, and they all said it's completely normal and that they go away on their own after some time.

“But, I felt sorry for him.

“So, I put my breastmilk all over his face (except his eyes) then everything disappeared, except for the rashes sa eyes! Then I started spreading my milk on his eyes as well…”

Thankfully, the trick worked on her newborn and Baby Amari's skin is back to being flawless as ever.

According to WebMD, rashes found in newborn's skin are very common and are harmless. Some common rashes include pink pimples, Erythema Toxicum, Millia, stork bite, jaundice, and Congenital Melanocytosis. These rashes may appear in babies after a few days, weeks, or even months and go away on their own.

Coleen Garcia and husband Billy Crawford welcomed Baby Amari last September 10.
