Make sure that when you bathe, the water is not too warm because if your baby is having allergies, the heat irritates their skin.
If the food is causing allergies, it will take a few weeks after changing the food for you to see a significant improvement.
An allergy formula might be good for her like Natural Balance allergy formulas (duck & potato or fish & sweet potato) or California Natural because of the limited ingredients. |
Great advice. If she is having a particularily rough day- children's liquid benedryl works great for Layla. i try and limit when i i give it to her to only when we are desperate-and it works great.. makes her drowsy though.
