Well we took Ms Juju for her 18 mo check up, ok we were a little late, more like 2mo check up. She is doing good. Her stats 22lbs10oz (25%) and 32in (50%) aka SHRIMP. The dr was not concerned about her weight. But we mentioned that she got a rash on her face when we had shellfish. So her pediatrician recommend we see an allergist. Well we went to see one and he ran the prick test on her. The prick test consist of little needles with the allergents on the tips and they stick him in her back. She had 24 pricks (they do the pricks in groups of 8) with allergents of shellfish, fish, dog, cat, grasses, mold and dust. WELL guess what she is allergic to SHRIMP!!!!! So the dr said to just watch her close when around shellfish. Since she is young they would not do further testing until she turns 3 to see what the severity is. But he gives us a prescrip for an epi pen. He was also concern about her dry skin or eczema so he gave us 2 special creams/lotion we have to put on her daily. So now we have to carry around an epi pen and apply daily cream. I guess the saying goes be careful what you ask for!
So as you can read and as Jonathan told Juliette last night, "She just doesn't like eating her own kind, SHRIMP" LOL!!!!
Here is a pic from the past weekend. She had played so hard she sat in her chair and fell asleep! (Yes that is a paci which is getting pretty scary to watch her with. We thought she was playing with them but now we think it is becoming a habit. SO we have now hid them!)
