Eggs

Research suggests the sooner allergens are given the less likelihood of an allergy. We test all the allergens we/ cook give regularly at home within the first 2 weeks x

I give all the allergens super early, and I'm breastfeeding so baby is already exposed. We don't have allergies run in our family thankfully.

My friend, who has allergies in her family gave the most common ones while close to the hospital. Went to a cafe etc. she did diary, gluten, and nuts all near the hospital, just in case.

I gave eggs straight away!

I gave eggs the second, third and fourth day of weaning! It was the first allergen I tested as it is one of the most common. We’ve also done dairy and one lot of peanut but neeed to do peanut a few more times as they don’t usually/always react first time. I was super nervous and to help I made sure to do it early in the day, straight after a nap so he had a good 2 hours awake I could monitor him well and when I had someone else home with me!
