Tell me about HIVES!

[Olive]

awesome thanks lovelies!!

hers were quiet small (as in the bumps) but there were heaps and i mean around 50 on each arm etc.. are they normally big or can they be small bumps

[~Kim~]

Both babe. Sometimes depending on the exposure or how sick I am I get both.

Olive, My DD had this recently too. The small bumps and all over her torso. Scared the crap out of me but Dr Google images explained that it was hives LOL I thought back over her food and the only new thing was strawberries. I stopped giving them to her and they slowly went away, but she still has some so now I think she may be allergic to something different or as well as strawberries. I am going to give her them again in a few weeks and see if there is a reaction.

Hope it settles down for your little one.

I get big bumpy hives and have a few allergies, so it does not surprise me if poor DD has my health problems.

DD had hives again tonight right after tea, this time on her face, the only thing she had the same as te night before were mushrooms and zuchinni

Olive, she's pretty sick isn't she? Some people are just predisposed to them and there doesn't have to be any external trigger, it can be the illness itself causing them. I got swine flu last year and got them through that. Hope she's feeling better soon poor pet
