Allergy Alert Bracelets....

[Visitor6]

Zarava, I found the same site you are referring to, I would get the polycotton wrist band and put it aound a 9 month old ankle even two of them to make it stand out. Red is the universal allergy colour. I know we look for them in the areas I work in.

You either make it stand out or you dont. Maybe the T shirt might help!

thanks hun... i was thinking 1 on her ankle 1 on her wrist for 'public events'.... the t-shirts are cute but she outgrows things so quickly at the moment it's not an expense i can take on... maybe i can get stickers made cheaper in bulk through one of those big ones that advertise in baby mags etc!

Ohhh Bright Star Kids do stickers and you can choose whats written on them, i can have a bright red sticker with a NO DAIRY sign and then i can have something like

Please do not give me DAIRY,
I am ALLERGIC

I know i'm cute BUT
Please don't feed me - i like this as it doesn't refer directly to dairy, a lot of ppl think ok no milk or cheese not to think of other things... IYKWIM.

Just want to add that a medic alert bracelet or necklace is still a good idea. If someone has a reaction, people will search and find it. Especially ambulance crews. I know this isn't a preventative but it will help to quickly identify the cause and how to treat it.
