My Dirty Baby
Thursday, July 24th, 2008My dear friend Becky at Boys Rule My Life hosted a dirty baby carnival. Ok, so maybe Becky isn’t a dear friend because I just read her blog and she sometimes reads mine, but I think she’s pretty awesome. She deals with dairy allergies as well and I find myself going to her [...]
It seems egg is on the list now as well
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008Last week, we had TheYoungest to the preferred allergist at Children’s Memorial. After going through our history, she did a skin prick test which sounded a lot worse than it really was. TheYoungest wasn’t bothered at all by it.
She reacted to milk which was no great surprise, but she also reacted to egg. [...]
So(y) Busted.
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008Continuing from my previous post, we were to try soy formula since her RAST test came back negative to soy. I was so looking forward to using soy instead of the very expensive formula ($25 for 3 days worth.) Like I’ve said before, I would like to breastfeed exclusively again, but more on [...]
TheYoungest’s first few months (cont.)
Monday, February 4th, 2008Where was I? Oh yes, the vomiting, the hives. It is hard to believe that was a month ago. That means TheYoungest is 5 months old. Happy Month Birthday, Baby!
I had instructions to call the allergist the next Monday morning. Our pediatrician recommended one that I had already seen with [...]
Vote for Martha’s Stewarts Allergy Magazine
Sunday, February 3rd, 2008I don’t like or dislike Martha. I do appreciate some of her tips (have you seen the way she folds a fitted sheet?) and some I just find silly.
But right now she’s considering doing a new magazine. If you love me, and I know you do, please vote for her to do the [...]
TheYoungest’s first few months
Tuesday, January 29th, 2008Today I went to TheYoungest’s allergist to get her test results. They did the RAST test.
I’m kind of getting ahead of myself….
TheYoungest is almost 5 months. I’m nursing her. I nursed TheOldest and TheMiddleChild as well, but I had some issues with TheOldest and had to give it up quickly. Actually [...]
Here Comes the Sun
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008I’m in love. Seriously. Like I’d marry it if I could, and if I wasn’t already married to LushMan. Who’s LushMan, you ask? He’s my honey, my one and only, my rock, and my provider. We’ll talk later about why he’s LushMan though. Now I have to get [...]
