There is a herb(weed) that grows in most yards, called plantain. It works wonders on my skin irratations. When my little ones gets stings you can chop or tear it up and just place it on the spot, I like to put a bandaid over it and just let it sit until the next bandaid change time. I know it sounds strange but it really works. You can google plantain herb and find a lot of info on it. you can also go to morethanalive.com or bulkherbstore.com to read about it.<br /><br />Oh, by the way she is just too adorable!! It makes me want another little girl!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-5252963668526369852009-06-08T23:20:06.861-04:002009-06-08T23:20:06.861-04:00She is truly lovely!

I think that is so okay. :-) Love that the two of you already took in a chic flick together. How dear to know there will be ever so many more. Just delighted to know there are no new blisters. That is surely a terrific (!) sign. Very happy for you, and so thankful for God's mercy to Hope and to your family.

I thought she looked like a tulip. Baby Hope does look like a beautiful tulip in that picture.<br />My middle child had similar blisters when he was an infant. I honestly thought that my husband was holding him and smoking at the same time, and burnt him. I was furious. This happened on 2 occastions. The Dr noticed it on a visit, and he said that my son was the first case he had ever seen in real life. And because if was so minor not to be concerned. I didn't even know what he was talking about because I had never hear of this skin disorder. He would get spots, they would blister and then heal. He has out grown this. Like the Dr said he would. And he never had anything more serious than a few at a time. I will pray that this is what Hope will do.<br />She is beautifulJackienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-47320937436593833902009-06-08T20:18:57.424-04:002009-06-08T20:18:57.424-04:00Beautiful, beautiful baby:) I am so thrilled that...Beautiful, beautiful baby:) I am so thrilled that she is home and healthy!!
