A member asked:

1yr old sweats alot when she sleeps. the sweat has a sweet smell almost like antibiotics. shes not on any meds & it started 2mths after dx w/ pneumona?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Some basics: Unless the kid runs a fever with sweating or shows signs of poor feeding during the day I accept this as self regulating their body temperature. The smell of their sweat is often altered by intake of vitamin products, supplements, aloe vera or similar juice products or medications. I would bring it up at her next doc visit but not necessarily schedule one just for this. It it spooks you go in.
