Julian has the egg allergy, so what we have been doing in the past is just make sure he is taking enough Vitamin D supplements…They have always worked. He has never had the Flu. Last year his Allergist wanted him to get the Flu shot, so this year we had him get it too because of the baby.
I took him this morning to get his flu shot, and they let us go home after the shot, unlike last year they watched him for half an hour. On my way home, i have to admit i was scared. I kept on checking on him on the back to make sure he won’t have any reactions. He looked a little tired and felt weak, but didn’t have any reactions. He takes Zyrtec (antihistamine) once a day before bed, for environmental allergies, so i made sure he took some last night, and i do believe that helped.
On our drive home, we were at the stop light, i turned around and he had layed his head on the side of car seat. I almost pulled over. I called him and he answered in a drowsy tone, i just drove to the MCDonald’s parking lot. I checked him, talked to him, he said he was fine but of course as a mom you know you are almost going mental. So I bought him some nuggets and fries.. on our way home he was chewing on the fries, so at least that calmed me a bit. He was eating, so that was a good sign.
Leaving with allergies, everyday is another story.
