I found out at 3 weeks that DD2 is sensitive to dairy and soy (she was crying and spitting up a lot). She is doing great now at 11 weeks except for a pale redness (no bumps ) around the anus. I don't know at this point what is causing it...maybe just irritation? Anyway next week she is supposed to go in for the hib and dtap. My husband feels strongly in favor of vacs (a 1yo cousin of his died of meningitis), me less so and we have selectively vacced DS1 and DD1.<br>
My question is (yes there is one!): does the fact that she has allergies make it more likely for her to react to the vaccines?<br>
Thank you for your help, it's a difficult decision to make...<br><br><br>
