Baby or Leopard?

Our baby has polka-dots!!! For the past 3 days, Abel has had a rash all over his body. In the morning he is all swollen and spotted. After having some Benadryl he is better but the spots are still visible. We took him to the Dr. and he said it must be an allergic reaction or a reaction to having a cold. Either way it's pretty pitiful and we are praying that the dots go away soon. I did my best to capture some of the rash in the pics below. We welcome any ideas you blog readers may have about the reason for the rash

Swollen!

It makes me want to cry when he's all puffy.

Well, he still looks pretty happy. Maybe Uncle Curtis will have some advice.

Anytime Reece or Trae had rashes, it was an allergic reaction to either a different bath soap, laundry soap, or diaper. And then one time it was a food. Just try and think through anything that's maybe changed in the past few days. Then again, it may just go away and you'll never know what it was :) Hope he's better soon.

That poor little baby:( I've never seen his eyes look so tiny.
Hannah got hives a couple of times when she was really little and we could never figure out what it was...the only thing we came up with was that a lot of different ladies had been holding her so we thought it might have been their perfumes/lotions. We'll pray that it goes away soon.
