The good news is that it's easy on the boobs lol:). I cannot wait to see pics of BG's 1st bday!

It didn't bother my LO at all either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1048875 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:21:20 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Oh, and we went to another LO's first birthday party last weekend and he had 9 teeth! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1048870 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:20:45 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: We are a few days away from her first birthday and still no teeth! I can't even see any bumps! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1048858 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:17:17 +0000 PrincessBaby 1048858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Totally unrelated- did your LO cut a tooth yet? I know she was also a late teether. I saw on another thread that a LO that is H's age has eight teeth and we've yet to cut our first! I have been meaning to see if/when BabyGloss cut her first tooth so I can be reminded that it's totally normal to teeth so late! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1048842 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:13:45 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: My LO had a similar reaction to scrambled eggs . . . we have just taken eggs out of the mix for the time being. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1048837 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:12:20 +0000 PrincessBaby 1048837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It looks slightly better today but I still called the ped and talked to a nurse...They told me to try a little benadryl to see if it helps, and if not then it's just contact irritation and aquaphor is the way to go. </p> <p>It definitely doesnt seem to bother her so that's good... </p> [attach=1247/13/ms8vgl.600x303.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047211 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:46:19 +0000 Kemma 1047211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe rub a little breastmilk on it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047194 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:42:35 +0000 PrincessBaby 1047194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll try something else and see how it gors...She's never had a problem with neosporin before.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047155 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:29:21 +0000 yoursilverlining 1047155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Add me to the no neosporin list; I'm allergic as well - my dermatologist said something like 25% of people are! I use polysporin instead, which is harder to find. But for something like that, I'd just gently clean the area and if its bugging her maybe try to dab a cool, wet washcloth on it but then let it clear up on its own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047150 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:28:41 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1047150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We really like Motherlove nipple cream or something similar. It is safe for infants/people to ingest, and it provides a barrier against irritants while skin heals. I use it whenever the girls get a scratch or facial injury, or on chapped lips and skin in the winter. I'm probably way over-cautious about what gets close to their mouths and eyes, but there you have it. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047131 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:24:52 +0000 Ginabean3 1047131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with neosporin.....I am allergic to it! And didn't even know! My dr. Suggests bacitracin as an alternative. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047124 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:23:14 +0000 StbHisMrs 1047124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: I'm ith the others on no neosporin. My dermatologist told me that when you put neosporin on a rash it can make it worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047122 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:22:36 +0000 PrincessBaby 1047122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Ham: Aquaphor instead? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047116 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:21:08 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1047116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to look up the ingredients, but I am rooting for cinnamon. It can contact "burn" skin, and it doesn't really hurt you, but it will leave a skin reaction like this around the mouth if it sits there. And I would say skip the neosporin. I wouldn't want to apply it close to the mouth.</p> <p>Hmmm. So apparently no cinnamon. And I don't see any ingredients that raise a flag for me unless it is some type of allergic reaction. I'd say steer clear of them and probably let your pediatrician know. They might have some ideas of how you can safely identify which ingredient (if any) is causing the reaction. It is also possible that she just has some irritated skin there and the combination of saliva and food is causing it to look more irritated at snack time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047098 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 15:19:02 +0000 PrincessBaby 1047098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: Yes she eats one while I get her food ready...It's like her appetizer...After she had it this morning it looked REALLY red and I was like "What is up here???" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047037 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 14:56:25 +0000 Mrs.Ham 1047037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: I would caution against the neosporin too. My MIL is a dermatologist, and she said that she doesn't recommend neosporin because more and more people are allergic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047032 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 14:53:53 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1047032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD had that reaction to a couple of different foods. Once I wiped it off w/ a wet washcloth, it started to go away (still took over an hour to go away completely). I waited a few months before letting her try it again and she hasn't had a reaction since. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1047013 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 14:42:48 +0000 mrs. wagon 1047013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LMW had that kind of reaction to pumpkin and squash! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046908 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 13:54:59 +0000 petunia354 1046908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has she had any of the wafers since Sunday? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046896 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 13:51:06 +0000 glimmersnaps 1046896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Be careful with the Neosporin. I can't remember all the details but my SIL used it for something on her daughter and it made it worse. Sorry I know that sounds vague! Maybe just ask the ped about when to use it. Hope she gets better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046849 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 13:36:00 +0000 PrincessBaby 1046849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: No swelling</p> <p>@mrsjyw: Thank you!! That is so weird! I think you are right bc normally if she has scrapes or scratches or really anything, I just dab neosporin on it and it's gone asap. I thought this was so weird!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046656 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 12:47:22 +0000 mrsjyw 1046656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A has gotten that as reactions to new foods he's tried. The only time it lasted beyond a day was with fresh apple slices. So we stayed away from that for months, he doesn't get them with apples now.</p> <p>I'd try to stay away from the wafer, I'm almost positive it's a reaction to that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046649 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 12:46:09 +0000 littlek 1046649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Is her face swollen? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-idea-whats-going-on-here#post-1046641 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 12:44:52 +0000 PrincessBaby 1046641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On Sunday afternoon, H just randomly got a scratch next to her mouth and all these red marks while eating a Plum's cookie/wafer thing. And playing with a toy...I had no idea how she got it, but I'm starting to think it has something to do with the wafer bc it is not looking any better even though I've been using neosporin since Sun. Could this be some type of allergic reaction to the wafer (and she just happened to scratch her face in the same area)? She has one of these wafers every day...If it's not better tomorrow I'll bring her to the ped... </p> [attach=1247/13/ms7amt.600x320.image.jpg] [attach=1247/13/ms7amu.541x600.image.jpg]
