The Scare

Zoë wanted corn pops from my brother's house, so I grabbed a baggy full of them for the ride home. She only had about 6 hours of sleep the night before and woke up instantly when she heard her cousins. She also didn't nap at all throughout the entire day. So when she started whining and thrusting her legs around I thought she was just throwing a tantrum because she was tired. Then, when we got home, I went to pick her up from her car seat and that's when I saw her legs and arms covered with bumps all over! I immediately called J and was like, ""We can't go to Indio! We needa go to urgent care right now!"" Yup, mommy panicked, that's for sure!

We drove her over to urgent care and then waited and waited to be seen. Gotta love urgent care, right? Wait times always horrendous.

Turns out it was indeed an allergy breakout. The Dr. was kinda loopy and not all there so it was kinda hard to truly trust his word on anything he said. He was talking about how even though Zoë has had certain foods, it's still possible for to have an allergic reaction if the food item isn't a party of her daily diet. Makes sense, but still. The Dr. was so out of it.

At least by the time we saw the Dr., the majority of Zoë's poofy outbreak had cleared. The Dr. just recommended Baby Benadryl and when we got home, she was totally fine so we decided we can still make it out to Palm Springs.

Joan said that it didn't look like a food allergy, most likely something she touched. Well.. found out from my mom that that Friday was the first time she rode on the pony at my brother's house. Yup, most likely the synthetic hairs on the bouncy horse did her in.
