Apparently my sweet girl is allergic to insect bites. Last year she had 2 or 3 bites on her thigh and required a ridiculous amount of benadryl to brin the swellin down. Saturday we went to see my inlaws and when we arrived I noticed my sweet girl's leg was bruised and swollen....Finally after some examination, a night full of excitement and some whining about her foot hurting...we called her pediatrician's office and talked to a urse. The nurse told us to go to the ER, to be sure there wasn;t something more. The ER doctor looked at her for about 5 seconds and prescribed the antibiotics as a precaution. Today I took her to her pediatrician and he said she is allergic to insects...and will require insect repellant everytime she goes out from now on. Poor baby girl. He did tell me how much benadryk to give her to bring the swelling down and help the itching. We're also putting Neosporin Plus, Caladryl and Cortisone on her to help relieve itching and keep it from getting infected.
That was our weekend mostly...we also went to a Fall Festival Saturday and my sister in Laws school...that was fun.
Pics will be added of Our Trick or Treat City Festival Friday Night.
