    Please help. I've spent time looking at several websites, but I'm still confused. A neighbor told me that this is poison ivy, but the additional leaves on each stem make me think that it is not. I have a newborn baby, so I can't afford to get a rash! Thanks in advance!

    Looks like leaves might be opposite, so could be an ash.
