AUTHOR: tootsielove
Hi , I have a son who's three now and he also had hives for Quite a while. The longest bout he had lasted 6 weeks. This happened to him when he was about 5 mounths. When he turned 1 I took him to an allergist for scratch test , I should say also I have a stronge history of food allergies in my family , It turned out he had allergies to dairy , eggs, soy, peanuts and tree nuts. I can say honestly that he never ate anything with eggs or peanuts in it because they are the allergies that run in my family so I wanted to be safe and have him tested first. My doctors also say that you can get hives from a virus , that sometimes thats the virues' way of working its self out . I would say that you should see an allergist, and mabye start keeping a diary of every thing you give her and see if she gets hives after one certain thing and go from there. I don't know if I was any help but I wish you lots of luck.
