oh!

I finally just figured out that Anya has a sensitivity & possible mild allergy to tomatoes and/or citrus. I was thinking that she just had very sensitive skin, but thinking back...every time she had something with tomato for dinner, the first morning poop would cause an immediate diaper rash. And the other day after lunch she was itchy...she had a little bit of lasagne with me. Last night was (an awesome) dinner of fish tacos with a guacamole-ish sauce I made with lemon & lime. This morning she had an immediate diaper rash after her morning poop. For some reason it never quite clicked because it was so mild, plus the diaper rash came 12 hours after the fact. I feel silly about not recognizing it because *I* had a tomato & citrus allergy growing up (mom, dad - was it mild when I was a toddler, though?)

We have Anya's well-baby visit to the doctor on Friday. I'll chat with him about it. If it turns out to be the same level of intolerance I had, it's no big deal. I'll just avoid tomatoes & citrus while she's in diapers & then not have them as a big part of her normal diet.
