No Fruit for YOU!

Well maybe just the Jack Attack!

Jack's first attempt at food was apples, he loved them! Jack's second attempt at food was apples, he loved them again BUT he broke out in an odd "rash" around his right eye and on his forehead. We moved on from apples trying pears, prunes, bananas and peaches each time he tried them after the 4th or 5th bite the "rash" would appear. We laid off fruit and just stuck with the veggies that he loved.

At his 6 month well check I took a jar of apples to show our pediatrician what was happening. Well the "rash" is hives and Jack is no longer allowed to eat any form of fruit or any kind of juice. We were told that the hives can quickly turn into something much worse. We'll try fruits again at 9 months at the Dr.'s office but until then we are reading all the labels as many of the veggies that are mixed contain a fruit. Good thing he loves his veggies!
