Anyone out there with a coconut allergy?  What are the symptoms?  How soon do they show up? Did you have any testing done to confirm it, if that even exists?  As we are in the midst of an elimination diet to determine...

We are in the midst of an elimination diet based in IGG testing a few weeks ago (no dairy, wheat, eggs, peanuts, or spelt) and my daughter's eczema initially cleared up really nicely after only 2 days.  It has been coming and...

I am nearly 16 weeks pg with #2 and have had a sinus infection and/or productive chesty cough for almost the whole time so far.  Just this morning it morphed into a serious sinus congestion/cold thing that is driving me crazy....
