My LO had a food allergy to....CARROTS! I didn't know that was possible. It was pretty bad, too. Now, it seems to be starting again with sweet potatoes. Should I stay away from the orange foods. Anyone else with this issue? Should I consult an allergist?
What happened? What type of reaction did she have?
The first day, she had a rough, red rash around the mouth. Then she had very loose, frequent stools for 6 days! And she had a painful diaper rash (I felt so bad each time I tried to wipe her softly). We also had two nights of bad crying spells. I'm assuming her tummy was hurting, along with a sore bottom. Oh yeah, and a low grade temp.
