Bryce woke up this morning with hives all over his body. He was surprisingly happy and energetic and had no other symptoms. After not seeing any improvement even after a good dosage of benadryl I took him over to Urgent Care and discovered that it is possible to have an allergic reaction to amoxicillin (medicine we gave him for his ear infection) a week after starting it. Luckily he seems to feel better than he looks, although I think his face itches him a lot. The doctor said the hives may last a few days but will go away on their own now that we've stopped the amoxicillin.

Oh poor baby!!!! I hope you can figure out what he reacted too!
I am so glad Bryce is better now. That looked really bad! I'm glad kids immune systems seem to work really well!
