Allergic Reaction?!

Alright, last week when we went to the doctor for Jayce's six month check up he told me that I could start feeding him meats. I was a little shocked and not quite sure if we should do this. I waited a week or so and tonight I decided to have him try meat. (Still very unsure if I should feed him this or not, but the doctor said that he should eat it.) I gave him chicken and like normal he ate his peas and some bananas. He wasn't quite sure if he liked the meat, but he ate most of it. I had to do a lot of tricking by giving him the chicken between bites of the peas and bananas.

About 1o minutes or so after he ate, Layne came in from mowing the front yard and asked me what the heck I gave Jayce to eat. (I was in the middle of cooking our dinner and Jayce was in the living room on the floor.) I looked out from the kitchen and looked at Jayce---I totally freaked out!!! His face had red blotches ALL over it!!!!!! I could only think that the chicken did it to him. I really didn't know what to do--so I called my mom. She said to watch him and if it got any worse to call the doctor or even take him to the ER. I felt like such a horrible Mom!!! What had I done to my child??!

He really didn't act like anything was bothering him. He played normal, but he sure didn't look very normal. Poor guy!!! About 30 minutes or so passed by and his face was going back to normal. By the time we put him to bed tonight he seemed totally okay. I don't know what to do or to think. Do I give him chicken again? Do I wait longer before I give him meat? Is my doctor NUTS??? I just DONT KNOW!!!!! Anyways---here are some pics of the poor little guy. The pictures don't really do justice to what he looked like in person. I just can't believe how bad it looked and how fast it went away. If you have any suggestions or advice I would LOVE to hear it!!
