Before we left for the doctor
When we got home from the doctor
It just got worse
And early this morning in his baking soda bath.We had a good morning yesterday till I decided to go out of the ordinary and fix some EGGS. So I fixed us all eggs and Cooper was fine with them. About 20 minutes later he had broken out in a rash and his eye was red. So I gave him some Benadryl thinking the rash would calm down but nope it just got worse. So later that afternoon after I had talked to some nurses and my mom I decided to take him in. So back into the doctors we go. The top picture was right before we left. The doctor prescribed Cooper with a steroid and just told me to keep him on Benadryl. His lip swelling went down last night but the rash didn't. So I put him in a baking soda bath this morning. The bath calmed him down and he went to sleep and it seems that the rash has gone down. Thank goodness! Well a couple weeks after his first allergic reaction I took him to be tested. He was tested that he was DEFINITELY allergic to PEANUTS. Well the test also showed he was allergic to Milk and EGGS. I told the doctor that I have given him both before and nothing has happened. So he said well maybe its not that bad and that I could give him eggs and milk still if I wanted to. Well he has been drinking milk for a while. I just thought I would make eggs yesterday for a change and since he didn't react from it last time I thought he would be OK. GUESS I WAS WRONG. Maybe I will just stick him back on baby food where none of these things happen. My poor little boy. I will be postings so non allergric reaction pictures soon.

Even swollen and red, he is adorable.
Poor baby... I would definately just stick to baby food right now. Are you still going to give him milk or are you going to switch to soy??
Poor guy, what a bummer he is allergic to milk and eggs too. You have sure had a lot of allergy drama lately. I am glad he is ok.
That's so sad! BTW what are you doing up so late?
Poor Cooper!! I hope he doesn't end up with any other allergies! It's not fun to have to worry about keeping him away from certain foods. good luck!
Wow, it was so great to hear from you! You have an adorable family, Keep in touch!
The joys of motherhood! Allergies suck and having to be careful about everything even sucks worse. I have to send Noah to school this year and it totally terrifies me. Got the Epipen ready!!
hope he's doing better! And thanks for the tip on eliza's blog :)
I hope he is feeling better and I hope he isn't allergic to anything else...
It's hard to believe that something so little like Cooper can be allergic to so many things. Poor kid. Luckily he was ok. Hey, side note..update the blog. Oh by the way last week when we saw you it was a huge mess on the way home. Mallory cried the whole way home and even once we came inside she was a wreck til the end of the night. She loves Dillon so much. Just wish we would have seen you longer.
