Haven't been around for awhile, but need to vent...

I hate food allergies. My daughter will be 2 in a few weeks, and we are dealing with her issues just fine. But now my almost 4 month old son is having issues and I'm frustrated that apparently I will never have a happy baby. He had a screaming fit when he was about 2 weeks old, so I cut all dairy and soy and he got better. At 3 months old he started having bloody/mucousy stools and got fussy again. So I went on the elimination diet 2 weeks ago. I've eaten nothing but chicken, turkey, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, zucchini, and pears. He continued to have bloody stools and I realized 4 days ago (1.5 weeks into the diet) that my prenatal vitamin contains fish and soy. So I stopped taking it on Wednesday of this past week. I just changed his diaper and it still has blood and mucous in it. I have an appointment with the allergist this week, but I'm just so frustrated! I don't know what else to do...

I'm sorry. I hope it gets figured out soon!
