Is there a bee for that hive?

Well, we had our first allergic reaction today. However, that being said, we have no idea what the culprit is. Neither Scott or I have ever seen hives before, but I think that Lauren got them. For all of you nurses or people familiar with hives, let us know your thoughts. The only thing that is slightly different is that she started that Glycolax last Friday. If she were going to have a reaction to it, wouldn't she have had it earlier? I'm clueless. We've used our detergent before, so I don't think that's it. Any suggestions? These are the before pictures. More splotches appeared after the pictures were taken. Then, the center of the splotches turned white. We gave her a bath & Benadryl (actually, the CVS generic equivalent). The spots stopped growing. Eventually, they all disappeared. There is just a slight pink ring around where the splotches had been.

You can have a delayed allergic reaction with almost any medicine. I'm suspect of the glycolax.
