Hives

Not sure what caused these, but the doctor seems to think it was some sort of virus. Ezekiel broke out in hives one evening, and almost as quickly as they would appear and swell up, they would "disappear" only to reappear somewhere else. It was rather bizarre and frustrating not knowing what in the world was causing them. I felt so bad watching him scratch at his face when I would nurse him (apparently heat causes hives to flare up), but was glad the benadryl seemed to help. After four days of hives, a trip to the pediatrician and a strep test, they were gone. I'm am hoping he doesn't have to deal with these again any time soon.
