Just to give you a "heads up" about allergy testing-if it is a food allergy, the only reliable test is by elimination. You need to start out with one "novel" protein, which you know she has never eaten before( like venison, for example, or rabbit) and one carb (like rice, or oatmeal). Your vet should be able to explain it to you.Also, to let you know-this is a long process that last for about 12 weeks. You can't give your baby ANYTHING to snack on other than her food, no flavored meds, chewies, anything like that. Blood tests don't really reveal anything as reliable as elimination diets, and it can be expensive. Best of luck to you and your baby!
