中秋节是妹妹的半岁生日，P爷爷的农历生日也正好是这一天，于是提前到周末给他们爷孙俩一起过了一个生日。一桌子的好菜妹妹能看不能吃，只好拍桌子蹬腿很郁闷的样子；等到我们切生日蛋糕的时候，妹妹早就已经呼呼大睡去了，更是连蜡烛是啥样都没见着。
最近时常有认识的、不认识的朋友发悄悄话给我，问起妹妹的近况。在这里我一并表示感谢和歉意。感谢朋友们的关心，同时也为没有及时发布更新而表示歉意。
妹妹的病例在专家的眼里属于非常乐观的一类。7月底的时候妹妹动了个手术，瘤体被完整、彻底地切除了；根据病理切片和实验室的结果，专家认为连预防性的化疗也不需要。我们需要做的，就是定期复诊、定期检查，如果两年之后相关数据不再反弹，那么就可以认为是“痊愈”了。
小孩子的恢复能力是惊人的，妹妹术后在医院里住了一个星期，回家之后稍作调养就又恢复了生龙活虎的本色。
人都说“老大照书养，老二当猪养”，我们家的老二到目前为止还是“照书养"。什么时候开始添加辅食，添什么样的辅食，完全照着手册来，还是一点不敢闪失。妹妹的食欲明显比她哥哥好得多，根本看不得人吃东西，家里人的晚餐时刻是妹妹最兴奋的时候，坐在小车里看大家吃饭，手舞足蹈，逮到机会就到桌子上捞一把，捞到谁的饭碗就拽过来舔，那样子看起来真是“作孽”。
能吃辅食了之后妹妹的“日子”好过多了，喝完奶之后有米粉吃，还有胡萝卜、红薯、香蕉、苹果泥，妹妹没有一样不爱的。前两天更好了，妹妹满了半岁之后开始有“荤菜”吃了，午饭给增加肉菜，先给她试的是鸡肉（糊），大口喂之前先让她舔了下小勺，妹妹脸上于是就有毫不掩饰的惊喜，心想这东西可比胡萝卜香多了！没两下一大勺的肉糊就下肚了。真是让人高兴。
这两三个月以来，电脑里的照片又攒了不少，有空慢慢地贴吧。
四个半月的时候第一次理发，我给推了个小子头，妹妹居然没怎么哭。
这张照片我很喜欢：妹妹5个月的时候开始能侧睡了，小猪一样可爱极了。
P陪着妹妹玩，可以挣点小零花钱。
P经常嫌妹妹老粘着他，偏巧妹妹就爱跟着哥哥玩，只要能挤在边上哪怕哥哥不睬她也行。
妹妹现在已经很会坐了，手上抓个东西可以玩好一阵子呢。就是脸上好多的疹子，跟P小时候一个样。

祝福妹妹!!!
妹妹脸上的红疹子不像俗称的“奶癣”，我们估计也是由于添加了辅食之后对某种食物成分过敏造成的。眼下我们什么都没有给妹妹用，只是尽量保持皮肤不要太干燥，还有不要让她自己去搔抓。
氢化可地松(Hydrocortisone)我们不太愿意用，主要原因是这毕竟是肾上腺皮质激素类的物质，长期使用会使人体的细胞免疫、体液免疫功能减弱，从而引起继发感染，比如真菌感染。
YY提供的资料很不错，这个周末我会到Whole Food去逛逛，争取把那个方子配齐了试一下。效果如何我会上帖子更新的。
还有，P比妹妹大7岁；但生日只差一个月。
小的一般都喜欢跟大的，喜欢玩大孩子的玩具（虽然他／她还不见得懂的怎么玩，可就是喜欢 ：）。 请问 P 和他妹妹年龄相差多少？
“逮到机会就到桌子上捞一把”“毫不掩饰的惊喜”哈哈，太熟悉了。
谢谢YY~.~ 将治疗eczema的方子贴在这里, 小儿8个月了深受其苦, 我们没办法只好一直用hydrocortisone.这下好了, 有all natural的可以试一下.一直知道hydrocortisone不好, 不过到底有什么坏处还是不很清楚, YYmm 可以解释一下吗?谢谢先!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
妹妹的样子实在是太可爱了！ 我看着她的笑容心里也不由自主地乐开了花：）
Is the rash eczema or other causes like food?
Attached is an eczema oil mixture, totally naturally.
Eczema oil mixture
(Info from a friend, olive oil formula is inside this message)
Dina,
I have had eczema all my life and my twin sons have it, too. I have seen EVERY dermatologist on the planet and also had allergy shots as a kid and adolescent. All avenues were explored including food allergies (too hard to isolate), external irritants (too hard to control), and regular allergies. Getting on a pre s c r i p t ion allergy med helped my itchy eyes and runny nose but not my eczema. I did a ton of research and decided I was sick of using steroid based products (hydrocortisone....) because the long term side-effects are scary as you said, it's only a quick fix. To make a long story short, I mix an oil myself and here is what I use it for: I mix it into tepid bath for my boys (who are bathed every night), I add it to their nightly lotion and shake up the bottle (Aveeno), and I use it straight on their face and body if need be. In other words I use it EVERYWHERE!!!
Here's the formula:
5 parts ORGANIC, EXPELLED OR COLD-PRESSED, EXTRA-VIRGIN olive oil
3 parts 100% pure vegetable glycerin
2 parts ORGANIC, EXPELLED OR COLD-PRESSED, sesame seed oil
1 part SWEET almond oil.
All products can be found at a health food store or grocery store health food section.
Shake up the mixture every time you use it. Every ingredient in this mixture is not only edible, you CANNOT overdose on it. The only problem is that it is not a quick fix. It may take weeks before the product works, but it will help to soothe in the meantime, and you should notice a difference after the first few days. But it has worked wonders for me and you are talking to someone with whom until I started mixing it would break out on every inch of my body and scratch to the point of depression. It was horrible. But when my sons developed it, I decided they were not going to suffer like I did, and that I was not going to soak them in 'quick fix' drugs. The exact cause of eczema is unknown. Sometimes my son will eat something (like cantaloupe) and his face will break out. Luckily if that happens I know to avoid that particular food and just use the oil more often. Heck, you can rub it on 20 times a day if you want. Here are some tips I have picked up over the years. But the fact remains they do not know what causes it, although genetics is a factor, and it commonly accompanies asthma (which I have) and allergies (which I also have).
1. Don't use 'baby' products like Johnson and Johnson. They are loaded with perfumes ( a major irritant for eczema skin). I use generic Cetaphil soap (about $3.50 a bottle if you buy it at Wal-Mart and buy the generic). It is completely fragrance free and has no alkalinity. I use it to wash them and their hair. It works great. A soap does not have to "lather" to work. Another myth is that you have to wash the whole body to get clean. Not true. I add a squirt of the Cetaphil to the bath water and just scrub them from that. You only need to scrub the areas that create bacteria: the armpit, the hands, feet, and buttocks and crotch area (and of course any spots that are obviously soiled. Do not rub the body dry...just dab with a soft towel. I add the oil to the bath because it helps the water not to dry out the skin. The skin will retain moisture which is major problem for eczema skin, it is dry and cannot retain moisture well. Glycerin helps pull moisture from the air and draw it to the skin. Olive oil is a moisturizer but will not clog the pores so the skin will breath but is also a natural anti-microbial and helps kill germs that irritate eczema skin. Sesame seed oil had known properties for fighting eczema as well as sweet almond oil (this is a very powerful anti-itch oil but you don't want to use it in full potency...that's why I add only one part to the five). But if the eczema is REALLY bad yo don't even need the lotion. Just add the oil directly to the body after the bath. Once again, it will NOT clog the pores, and it leaves the skin feeling so nice. (It does stick to bath toys, though...oh well...it's worth it.)
2. Avoid "scrubbing" the skin. This thins the much-needed natural oils on the skin.
3. Avoid "perfumes" in products. One of the best moisturizers I've ever used is Neutrogena Fragrance Free Hand lotion. I use it on my face and lips and my eczema is gone...it is glycerin based.
4. Hot water is bad for eczema skin but so is very cold water. Tepid water is best.
5. Moisture in the air can help but keeping the skin moisturized is much better.
6. Avoid fabrics on the skin like wool, cashmere, silk, and mohair. These are all eczema irritants. Polyester doesn't bother it, but cotton is best.
7. DEFINITELY avoid down comforters, down coats or any type of "bird feathers." We had down comforters in my home while I was growing up and I have now found out that down is a MAJOR irritant for ANYONE with allergies or skin problems. I have been totally safe by just making sure all my linens are either cotton or have polyester fill. Polyester is warm and comfortable and hypo-allergenic. That goes double for pillows!!!! Down pillows will irritate eczema severely.
I hope this helps. You might need to use it for several weeks. But I have noticed, the more it is applied the better it works. You may feel like your rubbing it on your baby all the time, but it feels good (my boys skin is totally healed - but I have to keep using it) and it's better than drugs. See what you think and let me know...I'm anxious to know if it works for anyone else as well as it has for me.

There are a few things to add to the mixture that will help it 'keep.' You can add drops of grapefruit seed extract (health food store), or drain a few tablets of vitamin e into the mixture. The problem is, I don't know how much of either to use. I don't keep mine in the fridge because it gets used up so quickly, but I live in Wisconsin and as it's 26 degrees right now (a warm day), preservation is not a huge problem. I would recommend that you make a large batch and store it in a large, dark bottle. The olive oil or sesame seed oil you buy will probably come in a dark bottle...most of the organic stuff does. Store the majority of the mixture in that and what I do is I fill up a couple of lotion bottles with pumps. I keep the lotion bottles all over the house so that it's handy when I want to slather some on Nicholas' face. I keep a pourable bottle in the bathroom as I pour a large amount in with the bath water, but for using directly on the skin throughout the day, put small amounts in the lotion bottles, shake them up EVERY TIME YOU USE IT, it really separates, and just pump out what you need. When it gets low, wash the lotion bottle and refill it with the mixture in the fridge. In the fridge it will keep for up to 3-6 months.
妹妹脸上于是就有毫不掩饰的惊喜
》》好可爱的妹妹，象女儿小时候。看见外婆端着碗经过就开始笑了。
妹妹笑起来和妈妈一模一样，太可爱了！脸上的疹子是食物过敏吗？我们孩子小时候吃了某些食物后就这样，起先不知道原因， 后来做了过敏试验， 才发现是食物过敏，2岁后就慢慢好了
