No scratching - 不抓癢了

* 4th June 2008 - 11 months *


From about 4.x months on, Emma started to have eczema, rash on the skin that's itchy. In the beginning, it wasn't too bad either. Slowly it got worse and worse. She scratches like mad whenever she can. Then it makes the rash even worse and at times, she scratches so hard, she bleeds, too. So after shower each night is like a battle with her! Trying to get all the layers on her, put cream on and at the same time, distract and stop her from scratching! It drives me mad, too. I don't like seeing her like that and it's so hard to stop her, as she fights very hard and she's a strong girl!


That night, she didn't scratch. I was soooo happy! Next morning, nappy changing time, again usually is her scratching time. But no, nothing!! Now, 2 more days on, some minor scratching - more like out of habit, but nothing serious!


So I hope this is the end of her scratching and it means the soy based formula worked! (with the tiny little non-steriod based cream which costed $48! worked!!) Just a bit hard on the pocket, but hey, if it means she doesn't scratch and hurt herself, and she's not itchy.... that's what it will have to be. :)

(There was a bit of delay for posting this, because the very next day, she starts to scratch... and a little more. Some days better than others. Sometimes I still wonder if those were real stratching or just she being silly!) ^^;;

大概從4個多月, 妹妹開始起疹子. 一開始也不是特別嚴重, 漸漸的就越來越慘. 所以他就一有機會就狂抓癢. 越抓就越嚴重, 他又抓的很用力, 都會抓破皮流血. 所以每天洗完澡就像在跟他打仗一樣! 一邊要穿尿布衣服, 還要擦乳液等等, 還要忙著阻止他一直抓癢. 真的很累又看他那麼難過也很心疼.

滿11個月那晚到是沒抓. 真的好高興喔!! 隔天早上換尿布也沒抓. 真的好感動喔... T_T 過了兩天... 也都沒什麼抓.. 害媽媽好高興喔!!

希望以後就會越來越好, 也不會抓抓了!! 家醫開的那一小條48塊錢的藥膏, 加上換成喝豆奶奶粉...終於見效了!

(這篇拖了這麼久才 PO 上來,就是因為後來妹妹又抓 ^^;; 時好時壞. 因為他抓就有傷口, 就又更癢... ^^;; 有時候他好像是看到媽媽在擦乳液才想起來要抓... ^^;;; 真的不知道他是真的癢,還是習慣性的抓)

看到小朋友不再狂抓癢,父母真的會很感動!
家有過敏兒,超難照顧的。很累喲 :(
有時我也在想,當他皮膚狀況看起來很正常,卻還是一直抓來抓去。到底是習慣性的抓?還是真的又癢了?

摸媽...
真的... 唉, 只要不抓癢了, 其他要囉唆一點媽媽就算了. :P

不過我看過很多小朋友都會這樣... 有的比較輕微,有的就真的是全身上下連臉都是...

我看到我弟妹他到現在身上都還有不少塊紅紅的... 加上我老公家也是過敏體質, 連婆婆都說, 他想要生3個, 我看先生一個看看吧. 兩個都過敏體質...小孩過敏的機率就大了些... 以後帶就很累喔.
