Skin update

My little one is 8 weeks old now. She is smiling and starting to sleep longer at night - she is such a delight. She's still learning to get to sleep on her own in the day time - much prefers Mummy's cuddles but at least she has the hang of nighttime.

I am currently not eating gluten, dairy or egg. Her skin is AMAZING. It is so smooth and perfect (well as perfect as possible really) and SO much better than a few weeks ago.Going off wheat made the biggest difference but her skin still had some eczema on her cheeks so I went off gluten completely. In a few days her skin stopped developing eczema and after about a week had healed to beautiful smooth skin. Love those cheeks!

Here are some before and after pics:

The plan now is to challenge dairy and then egg. The reason being that I went off dairy first but it didn't seem to make a difference to her skin. I need to find out if there is an allergy that was just being hidden by the strong allergy to wheat or if she isn't allergic. Same with egg. I hardly eat egg due to Miss 3's allergy and so I will have one once we are through the dairy and see what happens with it.
