Anybody else’s baby got a sensitivity to fruit and grown out of it? I’m talking fresh fruit not puree that you buy. She’s absolutely fine with fruit puree but if I give her fresh fruit she comes out in red blotches and starts hacking at her tongue as if it’s irritating her. I spoke to the health visitor who referred us to a dietitian due to her dad having the same problem however, the hospital came back to us and said there is nothing to be done at this stage. I mean fine but what do I do? At the moment I’m just giving her fruit puree to try and give her some form of fruit but surly she can’t just stay on those forever? 🤯

If the purée is ok could you cook fruit into things and it be fine like a purée? Like pancakes, muffins/baked oats that sort of thing? Not sure if your partner can eat cooked fruit?
no he can’t :( I gave her some pineapple today which is something she’s never tried. She ate it but within minutes she was rubbing at her mouth getting frustrated and then came out in blotches. All around her mouth goes red. I have tried her with almost every fruit baring grapes for obvious reasons and this her reaction every time :( If my partner eats fruit he said he feels like the inside of his mouth is swelling, almost throbbing. He also gets this strange rash. He just doesn’t eat it which is fine but It’s just not ideal her having no fruit in her diet. The only thing she has actually been ok with weirdly is oranges and banana. She isn’t fond of banana, I think it’s a texture thing. She will eat it cooked into pancakes but not as an actual piece of fruit. She isn’t just being awkward either because she eats anything put in front of her
