Need more info: A 9-month old is still in diapers, so a severe diaper rash is possible. These can cause blisters and even sores if bad enough. Candida yeast infection is also often associated. However, bacterial infections (like bullous impetigo) and even blistering diseases like linear IgA bullous dermatosis are possible; she needs to see her pediatrician and maybe a pedi dermatologist asap.
