Just a quick post to say I'll be on a brief blogging hiatus for the next week and a half or so. :)
I had a post go up on Sunday over at Deep South Moms about Ben's eczema and some new things that are working. And there's another one going up tomorrow about how much I'm dreading vacation. Or at least the driving part. Check out Deep South Moms tomorrow to read that one.
And now I have to pack. Bye bye for a while internet! (I'll miss you!)

Have a fun trip! Can't wait to hear all about it. :)
Enjoy your vacation!! Glad to see that you are making headway with Ben. I went to comment over there and didn't see where to do it. I thought about you when H1's flared up. For us, it was a clear case of not keeping on the probiotics. Are you still doing just the one? Also, I have a lotion that a friend herbalist made that kicks and we keep it in the fridge. She loves the cold when it is hot and itchy.
Thank you for your post over on DSM about eczema. (I'm posting this comment both here and there) I'd love to know exactly what the products are that you're using. We've got a 16 month old who gets flare ups of eczema plus diaper rash, and the steroid cream "thins the skin" right where the diaper rubs, and although it helps clear up the eczema fairly quickly, if we use it, we have to deal with several days of bleeding skin where the thinned skin was rubbed raw. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Plus, he's been starting to scratch the patches on his elbows, knees, and thighs when they appear. Like you, not sure if he's just more aware now or if it's getting worse. We just yesterday got a referal to an allergist so I'm really hoping that our insurance will cover the testing and hoping that there is some random thing he's allergic too, nothing too pervasive, so we can try to fix it via avoidance. *crossing fingers*
