Transiently: Babies often get a transient "baby acne" that is not present at birth (bathed in the waters of the womb) but comes out at a few weeks & lasts a few months. It is thought to result from maternal hormone effect which gradually declines as the baby ages.It will generally disappear without specific treatment.

Rashes: There are many different rashes caused by different problems, some of them could be very dangerous some of them none. I would strongly advise to see pediatrician for your baby's rashes.
