I need to put this out there to ask about something's my son has started doing and I hope it's all part of frowning up..

Since my son was born 16 months ago he has not been the most well child but he's alert clever and learning fast...

Over this last week and it really is just this week his whole attitude has changed.... It's like our son has been swopped for someone else...

He's moods have got really bad, he is angry towards everything and everyone, he shouts screams, tempers are normal this week, he's fussy with food, he has the worse dirty nappies I hane ever changed, rashes one on his back neck and his cheeks are red and cracking. He's stopped sleeping...

Is this normal behaviour ??? At 16months?

He also has never had hard stools since birth his nappies are currently very smelly very runny but they have always been this way..

He has various rashes one on his neck which itches as he has scratched it to death. Nappy rash from the acid poo he currently has, his cheeks are hand have been red and cracked for months..(we have had the rashes checked told it could be fungal food allergies heat eczema etc dr not really helpful and provided 3 creams to use) none of this seems to work.

We have over the last 4 weeks restricted certain foods as we were told he has an allergy so we think it's milk... (Although he's had it since birth) so we have stopped it.

And to top it all off he just screams and gets really mad over nothing...

Is all this normal or are we missing
Something.. I feel terrible as a parent to even ask but my wife and I are really drained, his attitude literally has become well not nice at all...

I have today starter to use Aston and Pearson powder as everyone tells me it's just teething...

But he's not happy not happy at all and I hate to see him so upset and angry I feel helpless..

We are first time parents and just looking for some advice

Thank you
