8 month old daughter starting to scratch ears and back of head

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

My son is 25 months now and has been on SCD diet and supplements for

about 4 months and valtrex/diflucan for a few weeks. He is doing well

but has had a yeast flare up recently (stimming, rash on belly, etc).

My daughter is nearly 9 months and she has been doing really well and

we have not noticed any issues up to this point. She is developing

well and has met all milestones. She had vaccines at 2 months and no

additional vaccines since then (and none in the future if we can help

it). We noticed recently that she started waking up in the morning

with redness/puffiness under her eyes and she has been scratching her

ears and back of the head a lot during the day. This just started a

few weeks ago and seemed to coincide with starting to give her some

solid foods (only pear sauce and yellow squash so far).

Does anyone think that these symptoms are related to yeast? Our son

used to do a lot of ear scratching and back of the head scratching and

we attributed that to yeast. We are wondering if we should start

adding some probiotics to her formula. Any advice on probiotics for

children < 1yr old?

We have been so careful with our daughter based on our experience with

our son. We are worried naturally. Any advice is appreciated.

Regards,
