    Cailin,

    I have changed my diet and cut out most salicylates, amines and dairy as I'm breastfeeding my boy who has ezcema. You could check out this website for more info: Food Intolerance Network

    So it's diet change for us and acupunture for him to help release fetal heat (TCM works on the premise that infant ezcema is passed from the mother to baby in utero through the foods she eats). It has worked wonders for us.

    He's started solids and we are sticking to root veg, meat and pears until I have had him allergy tested next month (his sister has dairy allergy, so we want to ensure he's has nothing more serious).
