Hi Tracey, thanks for posting this question. Have had the itches too lately, and did not connect it with CS. Have no idea if it is connected to the CS or just plain coincidence. One place on left shoulder, and on left shin, to the point of driving me crazy. I have NOT been on antibiotics. Had the itches several years ago in the same spots, but never to this degree, and was not using CS at the time. Could there be a cause other than the CS, which is common to each of the people? suzy
Hi there That old song seems to be my emblem lately. Why is it, that whenever I give CS to a mum for their child, who just happens to be a nurse, they have a reaction in the form of a itchy rash? The latest saga is that my best friends' child has broken out in a itchy rash on his tummy and back. If you all remember, this happened a couple of weeks ago with another child that I gave CS to her Mum to give the child for repeated bladder infections. The first child had been on antibiotics for 2 years. This latest child lived on antibiotics on and off for a good year for ear infections. I was beginning to wonder if it was my CS that was doing this, then I thought that none of my children have itchy rashes in response to my CS. They also haven't had antibiotics, with the exception of my eldest child, who has had one lot. Is this common among children who have had lots of antibiotics? Or am I just unlucky? Has anyone got info in regards to this that I could show the skeptical nurse? She tends to think he is having an allergic reaction to the CS. I read in the archives that this is possible, but not likely. What should I do/tell her? Thanks Tracy.
