The drama of bug bites

Jack is officially the victim of targeted mosquito attacks! And they only go after him, it seems like they seek him out in some evil plot to hurt him! It really breaks our hearts. So far we have put a mosquito net on his crib, he has one for his stroller and we try to limit his outside time, what is so hard , because little Mr. Jack just loves being outside.  And if it was just a little bug bite those evil bugs left behind, but it just so happens that he is extremely sensitive to any kind of bug bite. 025

His latest bite occurred while I was playing with him on the floor and literally turned away for a minute to gather some more toys, he ended up having a new bite! After Benadryl and Hydrocortisone were not cutting it, we tried out AftreBite that we just bought today and it worked miracles, the bites were lef as small two little dots, we are hoping and praying that they will stay that way, because those blisters really do hurt him so much. Some of the times they are not as much as blisters but just very hot, huge, hard spots(at least the size of a quarter) , but they do take just about a month to completely heal up and disappear. So let’s hope for the best with this new stuff we got, since bug nets and our constant watching over him are not saving him….
