All about Allergies


Well I guess I feel some satisfaction to say I was right -- Jacqueline is allergic to pollen in grass.

We just had her tested and she did great. They didn't make her stay still after all, instead she just had to avoid touching or rubbing her back -- which we did reasonably well.

She managed to charm everyone in the dr. office (patients and staff both) and even impressed mom when I realized that she is excellent at puzzles (baby ones of course). I also was able to confirm that while she says her colors well, she doesn't really know them yet (I've not been able to tell for sure b/c her helpful sister always says the answer every time I try to ask).

Anyway, back to the allergy thing. We got confirmation that she is not allergic to any pets or foods -- just grass. No shots though (I can't believe I'm sad about that), I guess she is too young, so instead she will just take allegra and hope she outgrows it.

Oh, of course I have to post a photo -- has nothing to do with her trip to the dr. but its cute.
