We are pretty positive that Drew has developed an allergy to tomatoes. It is particularly frustrating because it seems as though he has developed this in the past few months. Over the last two weeks we have noticed hives and a rash that seem to develop around dinner time. One night we were having roast with some ketchup and it was immediate. Monday of this week we had some chicken with BBQ sauce on it (has a tomatoe base) and he started getting a rash on his face. Thursday night, still suspecting that tomatoes were the culprit, we had homemade pizzas and about 1 hour later his body was covered in a rash and hives. Poor kid loves spaghetti, pizza, and just eating tomatoes (and so do I) so now we have to figure out a way to avoid it altogether. Luckily, he doesn't get swollen lips or have any difficulty breathing when he eats these things but the rash look itchy (even when we put Aquafor on it). Ugh!!!
