Hi! I am currently taking a prenatal vitamin that has added whole food concentrates. It does contain biotin, but I don’t see nicotinamide (only niacinamide ). And to be quite honest, I don’t really have a clue what they are. Magnesium is 200 mg.(44% daily value). I actually purchased a new prenatal vitamin that I have been wanting to take, especially now that my diet has been so limited, because it has pretty much 100% of the daily value for each item, whereas my current vitamin does not. I don’t want to become deficient in anything such as vitamin D or phosphorus or potassium. I’v ...

Thanks again John! All very helpful information. Lots to think about and that’s good. It’s so great to know there are others out there that have gone through the same thing. Still just wondering about the reaction time (flare-up) of the skin after coming in contact with or after ingesting an allergen. Any idea for that? I’ve read lots of different things. Probably different for all people, huh? Thanks!   [End]

Hi John, Me again. The reams testing sounds very interesting. I’ll definitely keep it in mind. I’ve been looking at some of your first posts and was very surprised to learn that coconut milk would be the closest (and healthiest) alternative to breastmilk. I want to continue breastfeeding if I can, but my weight is about as low as I should probably go and I’ve always struggled a bit with my milk supply (at least with the last two kids. I have 4, five years old and under. I’m a little tired. Ha Ha!) I have an appointment with our pediatrician tomorrow to see how our baby, Samuel, is loo ...

Thank you so much for your reply and the information! I will look at your other posts. I have been thinking about taking him to a naturopath. I think that would help. At least the doctors and I would be on the same page! Thanks again, joyfulnoise   [End]

Hi! Not sure if I have any good suggestions, but I also recently had a weird thing happen with my lips. It was either an allergic reaction to some cream I put on the outside of my lips (because they were feeling especially dry) or if I might have gotten a bacterial infection (staph). My baby, who has had eczema for about 3 mos. now, has a bacterial infection on his cheeks and I purposely don’t kiss his cheeks, but will kiss the sides of his face. Well sometimes he moves and when he does I sometimes get his weepiness on my lip area. I think this may have been what happened. The pedia ...

Hello everyone! I’m new to this forum, so bear with me. I have a 6 month old son who has had eczema since about 3 mos. old. I have been trying to find out the cause of it. So far I have taken dairy, soy, all nuts, fish, shellfish, egg, wheat, all fruits except for pear, corn, chocolate, tomatoes, and now oats, out of my diet. I think that’s all of it. The good news is my son’s body has seemed to clear over the last month with only slight rashy dots on his belly and back from time to time. He had begun to get red, rough spots and dots (rash) on his back, belly, arms and then legs. What’ ...
