Honey yogurt question

AOBtahoe

Ugh. So I thought I was feeding LO regular Greek yogurt and just realized after she's been devouring it that it's honey. I know no honey before one year because of allergies so I'm monitoring closely- would a reaction show up immediately? And if there is no reaction, does that mean she's okay to keep eating the honey yogurt because she definitely seems to enjoy it. 

Apparently my brain is fried this week.

I think the issue with honey before 1 is botulism not allergies.  I can't imagine that 10.5 months and 12 months would be all that different though.  I agree, not to worry!

Like PPs said, it's botulism and not allergy concern.  Based on what I read, even COOKED honey is a no-no, because the spores are not killed by regular heat.

Yeah...I'm pretty careful with the honey thing, we had a kid at work come in with botulism (environmental, not from honey) and it was very scary...I would avoid it in the future but she's probably ok from what she's been given. It has to do with baby's belly not being mature enough to kill the botulism spores I believe. I'd avoid it.
