Oops!
I figured out the other day that months ago I accidentally fed Sadie something that was made with peanuts in it.
So much for absolute caution that she gets nothing with peanuts until she’s 3, on the off chance she’s allergic. Doh.
Of course, we’ll still wait, but at least we have reason to believe she’s not one of those violently allergic people. Yay!
Meanwhile, she’s had banana bread made with pecans in it and been okay. A far less likely allergy, but still, good to know.
Speaking of food, she is so funny. She ate almost all of the meat, half or so of the cheese, and eventually a little of the bread out of half of a German bologna and cheese sandwich. I always cut the half into four triangular piece for her. She then takes them apart and eats the filling. Part of the time I was at the table with her, she systematically alternated between cheese and bologna, until she finally ate a second bologna piece in a row. It was so funny to watch. That and her total focus on performing the task of eating.
oh please.
That’s a pile of scientific crap. We all ate peanut butter early, and we’re fine.
There’s just no good evidence that early exposure increases the likelyhood of allergies.
None.
