In early December, we took Alex to the emergency room thinking hey may be allergic to his formula. The next day, his pediatrician referred us to an allergist. She (the allergy doc) decided that the red stuff all over his body was just eczema and ran some tests for food and pet allergies. Turns out that she was right (not too surprising) and his blood shows no signs of allergen sensitivity.
Looking back, it looks like a formula change upset his already sensitive stomach around the same time that the start of cold, dry weather triggered his eczema. Moisturizer and trying not to overfeed him have solved most of his issues and he's been pretty happy for the first few days this year. This picture gives away that his stomach isn't perfect, but for the most part he's been happy.
Of course, he was screaming bloody murder at one this morning. In the end, OraGel solved his problem.
