So, Hadley has been reacting to SOMETHING over the past two months or so...After she eats, she gets red dots around her mouth and usually blesses us with a fun diaper-full within the hour. (are you supposed to talk about that kind of stuff in blog-world? It felt funny writing it...)
So, we played around with milk stuff-- tried Soy for a while, which made it worse. So we switched to rice milk and have had some success. Not as many diaper problems but still the rash on the face adn even on the eyes.
Well, yesterday, Ella dumped our flour all over Hadley while we were making pizza crust. It was funny, we were all cracking up at the moment. However, within minutes Hadley started freaking out and was acting like she was in pain. So I quickly cleaned her off, put her in the tub. As I cleaned off her face, I saw red marks all over-- on her eye lids, in the crease of her eyes, around her mouth. So I am wondering.. Gluten Alergy?? I don't know, but possibly.
We took her to the doctor two weeks ago and they did a blood test. She did not test positive for any alergies, but I am not totally conviced.
So today I bought some gluten free bread and some other gluten free products at Market Limone (an awesome locally owned market in Nampa in the Belle District-- who knew we even had one of those here??? I fell instantly in love.) We will experiment with that for a while and hope poor little Hadley starts to feel better......
