Slim pickings today. I spent most of the evening in hospital with Domenik. He reacted to some peanuts off a drumstick icecream via breastmilk. He ended up having a severe allergic reaction - classed as borderline anaphylactic. It's not a pretty sight seeing your 16 week old baby swell and try to clear their airways.
So apologies for the crap picture, but it's an image that will stay with me or the rest of my life. This is just the beginning of the reaction - his eye swelled shut, face swelled as well as become covered in welts as did his tiny body :(
Not a good day, but at least we know we have a child with allergies, I just wish it wasn't this severe via breastmilk....
BTW - it's called De-Ja-Vu as we've been through this struggle already with his older brother and we were seeing the light at the end of the tunnel... Now it's all going to start again *sigh*
