So I have started introducing solids to my daughter and I am doing the recommended one new item at a time and wait a couple days to check for allergies. However, it occurs to me that I have no idea what a reaction would look like. My daughter also has eczema so when she is in a rest period from her cream, she tends to break out so that might skew things. What does an allergic reaction actually look like?
Re: How to tell if it is an allergic reaction?
Both my kids have sensitive skin and when they have reactions to lotion etc they get hives that are very noticeable on the back and tummy.
I think sometimes reactions can also result in a blotchy appearance on their face/body. I really haven't dealt with a true food allergy, but that's my experience with allergic reactions.
