peanut milk and wheat intake during pregnancy leads to less allergy

[CMdeux]

AFAIK, the first exposure to peanuts that DD had was at 11mo.  Seriously-- we didn't even keep them in the house, really.  I ate candy bars at work.  I remember having to BUY the peanut butter.

About 90 seconds after ingesting ~100mg, she was in full-blown anaphylaxis.  So.

Well, my kids are screwed.

Mac, maybe not active FA's, as I'd assume the fetal immune system would be dampened.  But dd's eczema was bad almost immediately, and she was exclusively breastfed with the same diet I'd had before I delivered her.  I'm guessing the allergies (or allergic potentials) were there, just needing to be activated, YKWIM?

Yes, that is my guess, too, Aggie.

DD had eczema patches pretty much from birth.

I'm pretty sure DS1's allergies were in utero.  Eczema within days of birth, low birth weight for full term baby (and I know everyone says "oh but you are tiny" but I have a family history of 9lb babies within my family and DH's), problems gaining weight while breastfeeding.  First ana event at 6mo to small amounts of barley in a jarred food.  Poor little bugger.

That brings back memories.

PA dd was a fatso.  She looked like a toad - you had to go digging for her neck. LOL  So definitely no in utero growth issues!  But yes, eczema pretty much from the get go.

Sounds like DS2. He birthed with a *thud*.
