Hello. My 8mth old son has been on jar food for a little over a month. I have been diligent on trying each food for 3 consecutive days to r/o allergies. He has gone through this with each jar. He has just broken out with bright red acne over both cheeks. I'm assuming this is indicating a food allergy however how do I know for certain without taking him back to solely having formula and restarting the foods individually again? He had green beans which is his favorite and would eat at every meal and mango which he has also eaten prior with no issues. Or do you think the acne is another issue all together. No other skin problems such as exzema exist and I haven't changed detergents. Thanks.

I just deleted the duplicate and moved this thread to allergies. :wink:

I will be back in a bit as I have a 2 year old re-arranging my living room as we speak.... ACK!

I would maybe cut out the last few foods you started and try those again, or just the last food if that's when it started. Also remember that uncooked foods (like if you gave him raw mango as opposed to babyfood mango) has larger proteins and can cause a reaction when the jarred didn't (this happened to us w/ mango actually).
