Day 2 of the allergic reaction

M. did not sleep well Monday night (between us, in our bed, so I could monitor her breathing) and when she woke up, the rash was even worse:



So I took her back to the doctor. We have a prescription for prednisone (which I hope to not have to fill, as the last thing I want right before Xmas is a kid whose immune system is compromised), and were given the go-ahead to use T's prescription Zyrtec once a day to see if that, in combination with the Benadryl, would help with the rash/itching/swelling. After one dose, it seemed to help--at least with the itching. I hope we're on the mend...
