Allergies
2nd day of the new year and I made another booboo as a mummy. Oh dear, I pray this is not going to be a trend!
Elliot seems to have gotten my seafood allergy, a few days ago, he broke out in rashes, we suspect because of some fish sauce that he had in a dish. The next day, he had fish porridge that made him blow up in angry rashes all over his body. It since went down after some Zyrtec.
It is the same allergy as I have so from experience, we have been keeping him off seafood for these few days. He finally seemed to be getting better so I brought him out today, without Merv who had gone off to play soccer. (It seems I'm dangerous without Merv!)
I brought Ellie for Japanese food because one of his favourite foods is sushi. I ordered him a kids meal that came in a lovely bear box and came with sushi and udon and fruit. When ordering, I was very careful to ask to change the crabstick sushi to cucumber and egg sushi. We ate happily.
When we met up with Merv, Ellie started fussing and scratching his legs. The rashes came back! When Merv asked me what I fed him, I listed the stuff out and he looked at me incredibly, "UDON?? They use dashi stock! Made from dried fish, the worst enemy!!"
Argh. I completely forgot about the seemingly innocent stock. Sigh. The rashes are back all over his legs again. I really really need to be more careful!! Ack ack ack!!
