Petechie: There are a number of rashes commonly seen in newborn babies. The one you are describing does not seem to fit in any of those rashes. I suggest that this baby need to be seen immediately to make sure she is not having low platelets or any other blood cell pathology.

Uncertain: These lesions would need to be examined, a history obtained & other tests may be necessary in order to diagnose them. Usually the lesions needs to be identified to determine the solution.
