Allergies

For quite some time, Ollie was broken out in a rash. Usually on his face and head but sometimes on his chest and arms. At first I thought it was dry skin but lotion never helped it. It also kind of came and went whenever it pleased. I did some research and found that this rash could be a sign of a food allergy. Ollie has been only breastfed up to this point. I should also say that he spits up A LOT, is very cranky and cries all the time, and the combination of his rash and tummy problems spelled out allergy to me. So, I went on an elimination diet. For 2 weeks I could only eat 15 things, and only use salt and pepper. After that, I noticed great improvement in not only his skin, but his attitude as well. He started smiling more, and spit up less. I could then start adding foods back in my diet. One food every 4 days then you watch for a reaction. Skip 5 months and here we are! Ollie is like a whole new baby! He only cries when he needs to, he hardly spits up anymore, and his skin is super clear and soft. He was allergic to gluten and dairy so I was on a restricted diet for awhile, but now he seems to tolerate all foods just fine.
