I'm a postpartum doula and I have a client (single mom,pro bono) who had a
severe allergic reaction to something unknown, rash and welts all over her
body and itching like crazy. She and I were at the E.R. 4 hours and allergy
was the only conclusion. All the while the baby nursed and slept and over
the previous and following week babe never had a single problem.
