Those with nut allergies

CateOfChicago · January 2015

So I gave dd a few bites of a pb&j sandwich for the first time on Wednesday. On Thursday and Friday, she has been getting little rash patches that pop up and clear up pretty quickly. They look like mosquito bites. Does anyone's LO with allergies get this reaction.

I should also mention that I called the ped and she said to let it heal and try again to see if she gets the same reaction. She had a fever and cough earlier this week so she had some Tylenol and honey (per pedis rec). Now I'm wondering if it is the honey.

I'm not too familiar with food allergies. Can our LOs have Benadryl yet. If they can I would have on hand in case it comes back,

On an related note. I was told by my pedi to give my DD 2.5ml of Benadryl at night just for a couple days to help with the drainage/cough. So yes they can have it. I would check the dose.

I don't have any experience with food allergies though. Sorry.

No experience with the allergies but yes they can have Benadryl. My pedi has had me give Benadryl for many months now. I give 2.5 ml. We've had many sinus infections, ear infections, and tubes since 8 mos, which could be caused from allergies. We see an allergist/immunologist on wed.

Molly has a peanut allergy. She swelled up about 5 mins after eating peanuts. It was definitely swollen, not like bites. Picture of her about 10 mins after eating:

Thanks for the input and poor Molly.
