So part of Connor's first tooth broke through today. Let me tell you, it is sharp! I can definitely feel it better then you can see it right now. Poor baby! Teething is no fun! He can't sleep and it has made him pretty moody.
To top it all off, I gave him some french toast for dinner. He has had eggs and bread before but I guess allergies usually show up on the second or third time. My baby led weaning book just keeps saying how that is a great meal for little ones but I guess not.
This was his face after a few minutes - the left side almost looked like it was getting a welt. I took what he had away right as soon as I noticed and wiped him completely down. He was still pretty happy through the rest of dinner but about a half hour later he started acting fussy and tired. We thought he must be ready for bed and got up to give him a bath and thats when he started vomiting everything he had eaten in the last hour.
Oh man. I felt so bad. If teething wasn't bad enough I gave him something that he is allergic to. I feel so bad. He was really pale but in good spirits for bath and bed time, nursed normally a little while later and was able to fall asleep just fine. I guess the good news is that he got it all out of his system and his face had already cleared up by the time he threw up. I'm going to watch him really well tonight and hold off on eggs and wheat for awhile. We already had a doctor appointment set up for Monday so at least I will have lots to talk to his doctor about.
