Is you LO allergic to mosquito bites? I mean, I know all of us are since the bumps are a reaction to the saliva and all, but beyond that. Do your LOs mosquito bites get big and angry looking? Aiden developed an big allergy to mosquito bites when he was this age, and still has it. His allergist has told me we need to keep him in after 6pm and try to keep him in long pants and long sleeves, which is impossible in the heat we've had this summer. Now Maryella seems to be developing the same allergy. The last few times she's gotten bit her mosquito bites have blown up to the size of a silver dollar. This sucks!

Eden gets HUGE mosquito bites. I don't think I've ever seen a bite on Ivy so either she's been lucky and not gotten bit or she isn't allergic to them. It's possible that she hasn't gotten bit because we're usually inside after dinner when mosquitos are out since my kids go to bed so early.

Brandon usually develops a spot about the size of a dime. I try to rub dryer sheets all over him before he goes out to keep them at bay, but it does not always work.

Aaden's had a few mosquito bites that have gotten pretty large, but they only stayed that way for a day or so, then they got smaller and eventually disappeared.

I don't think Alyssa or James have gotten mosquito bites yet. I swell up like crazy when I get bit though
