Answers:
I assume you are breast feeding!? If so, contact La Leche and ask about food allergies in babies in regards to mother's diet!. Perhaps it's time to switch to formula!. The benefits of breast milk cannot outweigh the suffering your little one is experiencing!. I'd be very, very concerned giving a young baby steroids and all those medications!. Have you seen an allergist!? Depending on where you live, it wouldn't hurt to meet w/ someone at a children's hospital!.!.!.or seek 2nd, 3rd, 4th opinions from other pediatricians!. You are your baby's advocate!. Don't blindly trust your doctor!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
okay!.!.!. so i'm guessing you are still breastfeeding her and she is allergic or having a reaction to something in your milk!. What you need to do is to get a rotation diet - I will look for a link but you should be able to get one from your doctor also!. The idea is you have different food types (that contain certain proteins) on different days, and then the reaction subsides on some days and is noticeable on others!. This will enable you to pinpoint the trigger foods so you can avoid them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Are you breast feeding and is this when she is having her reactions!? Try changing YOUR diet and putting better quality food into yourself from the organic stores!. You both should see an allergy specialist to have some simple test done to find out what might be causing your young ones reactions!. Stop the pharmaceutical abuse to your child!. She's not sick, it is just a reaction to something you are doing!. Find out what that is and then move on to the next step into becoming a more well rounded parent!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
