Colin’s Hives…
October 17th, 2007
I got this shot using the kids camera…
This was a few hours ago and now I have trouble seeing any normal skin on his back and his front is full and it has spread to his legs and face also…
He isn’t complaining at all though…

That is crazy! With it going from kid to kid it probably isn’t an allergy thank goodness! Besides the potential of being a virus, have you used any new lotions, soaps, detergents, etc in your house???
Could it be measles? or Rubella? I can’t remember if you’re vaccinating or not. And if it is, well, natural immunity is best ;D
Hope you figure it out soon.

no new nothing… we use plain water to clean the boys and we use soapnuts for cleaning clothes, but we have been using them for more than a year…. besides that no other chemicals or scents…
I am really hoping that it is not an allergy though…

No vax here… never… but it doesn’t look at all like those… it looks and acts like hives…
I am not a medical professional by any means, but I had what appears to be the exact same thing during the later stages of my pregnancy (my daughter is eight months old) and I was told by three different doctors that it was “contact dermatitis”. One suggested a bath in mayonnaise, one instructed me to take Benadryl quick dissolve strips every few hours. What ended up working the best for me was Eucerin cream and petroleum jelly. Of course, I was very slippery for a few days. I hope things get better for you!
