swollen eyelid - allergic reaction?
DS woke with a swollen eyelid, not severe, but I offered him a taste of sweet pototo yesterday for the first time, could this be a reaction?
we're seeing the ped tomorrow, I'm an ultra paranoid mom.

I am not sure, but you should take a picture of it to show the ped, just in case it goes down by tomorrow.
It could also be a sign of pink eye, I know that is going around like crazy.

I don't think it's an allergic reaction, but I"m not a doctor
Only one eye is swollen?
No other rashes on his body?
It could be allergies but I wouldn't think a food allergy. Could be anything from pink eye to cellulitis.
When in doubt, ask your ped. Hope he's better soon

Its not red, just a little swollen and only one, its not even pronounced enough to show up in pics
No rashes, nothing, he's acting normal, but a little sleepier thhan normal
Thanks for replies
