Dear blog readers,
Jace has had a rough month; flu, ear infection which I gave him amoxicillin for. On his NINTH day of taking the antibiodic, he broke out in little red dots all over his body which turned into dry red itchy patches covering his poor little body. Yes-allergic to penicillin. He was so miserable, couldn't sleep which meant, we were miserable and couldn't sleep. In an attempt to make him feel more comfortable, I went to the store to find some itch cream and some lotion that would be better for sensitive skin because his skin was so dry that the lotion I normally use was stinging his skin. I went to the baby section at Wal-Mart and saw the Aveeno Baby Lotion for Sensitive Skin and it said something about 'relief' so I grabbed it but then noticed it was nearly $7.00. SEVEN DOLLARS for an 8 oz. bottle of baby lotion. I put it back and went to grab some cortizone cream and some extra Benadryl. At the last minute I decided to grab the lotion so I could apply it in between applying the cortizone cream. I was desperate to try everything, he was crying non stop.
So..We have been doing this routine for about 3 days now. Yesterday, the rash started clearing up but his skin is just unbelievably dry, so I applied more of the Aveeno lotion. and more. and more. TODAY- his skin is even more dry and scaley. Dallin went to put more lotion on him and read the bottle probably thinking, "this stuff is crap" Then I hear, "Megs, this is BODY WASH"
In my defense, it looks and feels like lotion and the Aveeno lotion & body wash bottles look EXACTLY alike. They need to fix that. Johnson & Johnson's lotion and body wash look completely different, so idiots like me don't mistake them.
Anyways, I have been drying out Jace's skin more and more everyday. Lovely, huh? My poor baby cried and cried when Dallin put REAL lotion on him. I bet his skin was just burning so bad. You can bet I was feeling horrible.
Sincerely,
Mother of the Year.
