The paediatrician? "He's just a colicky baby". I could hit that man now for all the anger I feel that he didn't even take the time to listen to me and just suggest looking at my diet. It was so simple to fix and my baby changed completely once I removed all dairy from my diet. Those first few months could have been so very, very different.<BR/><BR/>I have just had baby number two (boy, did that take a while to muster up the courage!) and her paediatrician told me this time to definitely stay off peanuts, and if I suspected another allergy, start eliminating egg, then dairy.<BR/><BR/>So far she seems okay.<BR/><BR/>And also, we had no family history of food allergies, so it wasn't something I had thought about much.<BR/><BR/>I hope this helps. I wish that this information had been available to me.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7932750381169536137.post-19927981915835082222009-02-23T04:43:00.000+11:002009-02-23T04:43:00.000+11:00Well the sheep farmer needs to get some sleep!

Yes, I remember those days, the happiest now, but the most exhausting at the time.<BR/>I was usually asleep before the baby. <BR/>Have fun...tomorrow he will be in college! He really is very cute!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425123492444675750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7932750381169536137.post-31000548471087712822009-02-23T01:36:00.000+11:002009-02-23T01:36:00.000+11:00I almost for got - HE IS BEAUTIFUL.
