A whole month flew by, and Maddy seems so much older this month! She is moving all over the place, and we are not baby proofed, so we have to have our eyes glued to her at all times. Just tonight she fell over with a tv tray table she was walking along, with a glass on it that shattered, luckily only the glass was hurt, but makes me realize that I can't take my eyes off her for even a second.
She had her first blood test done, and took two nurses and both arms for them to find a vein. Unfortunately she has difficult veins like me. She was tested for allergies to the fruits that were causing her to have itchy "girl parts". She also was tested for a milk allergy and the normal 12 month blood tests so we don't have to go through a blood test again so soon. All her tests came back normal, even the milk one! The doctor thinks the fruits change the PH level of her stool, and it irritates her causing the reaction. I am slowly mixing in a little bit of fruit into her veggies and she hasn't had another reaction, hope we can build her up to full servings of fruit.
