ALLERGIES

It was once considered important to wait until age 1 - 3 before introducing your baby highly allergenic foods such as eggs, fish, and peanuts. While experts now believe that postponing these foods doesn't prevent food allergies, many pediatricians still recommend delaying or waiting to introduce them – especially for children with eczema or with a family history of allergies. However it's your choose to introduce new foods, discuss your decision with your child’s doctor first.
