Sick 8 Month Old Baby Girl, Help!

My 8 month old daughter Layla cannot tolerate any kind of formula, so I strictly breastfeed her and feed her baby food, just straight vegetables and fruits. Well once before I gave her gerber fruit smoothies baby food thinking she would enjoy it, and about 1-2 hours after eating it she got violently sick, vomiting everywhere like she would when she would drink formula. After a few vomiting fits, she becomes very lethargic and goes to sleep. Its extremely scary to watch and ive taken her to the ER several times when she was really young and...

Epi-pen Jr. in an Airport (And Some Liquid Questions)

My 19 month old son has a food allergy and we must carry an epi-pen jr. around with us at all times. Is there any special consideration we have to take when traveling by plane? I can see security claiming that it is a weapon or something like that since there is a needle, but at the same time, it is a rescue medication that is required to be with my son at all times. Also, because my son's food allergy, he usually cannot eat food out. I will be packing him some of his favorites since we will be traveling for breakfast and lunch. Is...

7-Month Old Baby Vomiting - Possible Food Allergy?

4 days ago my 7-month old son was vomiting for the first time right before bed - all his breast milk and then dry heaves for about an hour. He slept well after that and didn't throw up any more, was tired the next day and a little out of it so we thought he just had a stomach bug. Then this evening the same thing happened - vomited, slept for awhile, then seemed to feel better, although tired and fussy. Both of the days he had eaten little bites of egg yolk in the afternoon, but he had eaten this food already a few times before with no...
