Re: 7 month old with eczema around mouth the worst

THANK YOU SO MUCH for that information on the pears especially. It is weird you said that cuz I have actually wondered if that might be one of the things he reacts to. Just been hard to tell because he's been red for so long. Dummy me...he just had prunes and pears for bkfast this am. TERRIBLE me. Oh well. I will put all them aside now and only feed him apples then right for fruit? Or is there any other fruit I should try?
Also, do you think I should be giving him cereal? I don't usually use the rice because they usually get constipated with it. Do you think the barley or oatmeal is ok for him? I Feel funny giving him just apples daily for bkfast. He is BIG eater. He eats a 1 1/2 jars or 2 for each meal.
I don't do meat until they are on table food or closer to 18 months. So what do you recommend for his daily diet for lunch and dinner? Just peas and green beans and carrots?
Oh, I did go to my health food store last night and bought the borage lotion for him. ALong with some shower gel(even though its cucumber melon scent) its all they had and I wanted something moisturizing for him. I am hoping his skin will clear up with this.
Question, were your neices congested too from their "allergies" or whatever was causing the eczema? He is terribly congested and its something we've dealt with since he was just a few weeks old.
Rattly throat,etc. He had some reflux problems too and still does puke alot as well so it might be that still. Although I too stopped using the zantac they had him on. I couldn't stand giving it to him anymore. Its so strong. ANd made him fussier and puke even more.
ANy more advice please post. ALso,..get back to me on what you think I should stick with feeding him then.
Thank you much.
