Well it took us awhile to figure it out but we did. Phoenix is allergic to dairy, yes milk, ice cream, cheese, and anything else with a hint of dairy in it. How do I know this, because I am smart. Well, yes I am smart, but I stop listening to the doctor who kept saying it was a stomach virus. Well this stomach virus was lasting for ever, followed by the fungal issue she kept having. Once it may have been those problems but a month later I think not. So on a whim and suggest from a friend, I removed all dairy from her diet and low and behold it clear up in a matter of days. No diarrhea, no rash, no crying, no nothing she was fine. So needless to say Phoenix lives a no dairy life for now. I hope she grows out of it, do you know how hard it is to fine dairy free cheese. She is officially the so queen of the house and let me tell you not all of it taste good.

My condolences :-( Kid allergies are such a pain. One hint - Chamberlain's carry products that do a good job of replacing eggs in baking. Last time I was there I also looked around and they have a lot of products for individuals with allergies and vegetarian/vegan diets. They even had gluten free gluten! Good luck!
Oh my goodness, it bites big time. The kids are now to the point where they won't feed her at all, Payton's is jealous because she does not have alleries, so she has developed this fake allergy to pasta. Not to mention it is really expensive and adds another 20 minutes to my shopping time each week. But I love her and will do anything to keep from changing a diarrhea filled diaper. Thanks for the heads up! Miss you guys! 10 days to go and I can see my feet again!
