I've posted before about Brooklyn's allergy to strawberries. We were hoping she'd grow out of it. We discovered it in May 2007 when I fed her a whole jar of strawberry-banana baby food and the next morning she was broken out all over. She got over it and never had any trouble breathing, etc - just a full-body rash.
--
We tried her on a teeny-tiny slice of strawberry about 4 months ago (give or take) and still no good. She did not get the full body rash - but she did have a reaction.
--
This weekend she got some berry flavored gatorade - not strawberry flavored, berry - but apparently it was enough. She's had a rash since Sunday morning. We gave her a couple of doses of Benedryl but then we just have to let it run its course.
--
She is also harboring a terrible snotty nose and is tugging at her ears. Brannon checked her ears last night and they are not infected. The right one, which she seems to be favoring, was quite full of wax. We're just home-doctoring for now with garlic ear drops, which seem to be helping her alot!

Poor thing....I hate it when they don't feel 100%!
