Egg Allergy

James usually eats waffles for breakfast, but he hasn't been too interested in them the past couple morning. So, I thought this might be a good time to try some eggs. Boy, was I wrong!


Poor guy! He was fine until about an hour after he ate the eggs (which he really liked, by the way). I put him down for a nap, but he kept coughing after I walked out of the room. I went to check on him and found him writhing in his crib and scratching like crazy. His face was swollen and he was red and rashy all over. I called the pediatrician and they said to give him some Benadryl. The Benadryl did the trick! No eggs for James for a long while!
