There are many signs and symptoms that you can look out for. Mayo Clinic lists a few things that are signs of food allergies:
Dr. Sears has a good article on common signs here are his suggestions to look out for:
| SKIN | RESPIRATORY PASSAGES | INTESTINES | BEHAVIOR |
|---|---|---|---|
| hives red, sandpaper-like facial rash dry, scaly, itchy skin (mostly on face) swelling in hands and feet puffy eyelids dark circles under eye slip swelling tongue soreness and cracks | sneezing runny nose stuffy nose wheezing watery eyes rattling chest persistent cough congestion bronchitis recurring ear infections | burnlike rash around anus abdominal discomfort mucousy diarrhea constipation intestinal bleeding poor weight gain bloating, gassiness excessive spitting up constipation vomiting | fatigue migraine headaches hyperactivity crying irritability night-waking anxiety crankiness sore muscles and joint |
Little Miss had many of those signs, and were misdiagnosed as rota virus (she never had a fever, no one else got it, never vomited, and it went on for months). Her eczema was also misdiagnosed as tinea versicolor. Our Dr. had us put on selsen blue, and that was such a mistake! She had open sore on her body for days! She cried and cried. Ohh I felt so bad. I took her to a dermatologist, and they told me that her eczema had gotten so bad that it pushed the pigment out of her skin. What is so hard when you have an infant is that they cannot do allergy testing on infants, so it is such a guessing game. If I would have put two and two together, maybe I could have save myself some trouble. Well, my biggest hope is that I might save you some trouble, heart ache, and maybe a few trips to the Dr.
First we begin by praying and then trusting ourselves as mothers. I knew that there was something else going on with Little Miss. I asked doctors, and the same response was she will grow out of it. To be honest she did stop the endless hours of crying, but she still cried a lot, and just never seemed to be happy. My heart broke as I didn't feel connected to her. She didn't want to be held or cuddled, and it just seemed no matter what I did there was no comforting her. You feel like such a failure as a mother.
Anyways, looking back there would have been many things that I would have done differently. What I would have done it the elimination diet that Dr. Sears recommends. My Dr kept reassuring me that there wasn't anything that I could do, but once I figured out that there was really a change with her diet, I wish I would have just hunkered down and tried it. What is really two weeks? Especially if you have a crying baby that might stop?
I know it is hard, but we ended up having to do this anyways. I wish we would have started earlier. I would have had a happier baby, and therefore a happier mama. Also, you really need to get your spouse on board. This is just so tough anyways, you need someone to support you, help you and encourage you to see success.
