Children with Peanut Allergy - Mother question?

my firstborn has a legume allergy. i ate peanuts frequently during my pregnancy. i had mild food allergies and was asthmatic as a child. i breast fed for 3 years. i ate peanuts while breastfeeding.

first son's allergy was apparent when he was fed peas. he'd break out in red welts wherever the peas touched his skin. he would eat them and sometimes regurgitate, but we still we didn't put 2 and 2 together!

when he was 2.5, he tried chex mix and vomited. still we weren't on top of an allergic situation. when he balked at eating an m&m, i was dumbfounded. i read the label and noticed peanuts are used as an emulsifier in plain m&ms.

meanwhile, he was developing asthma. finally we figured out the legume allergy!

we have survived reactions on airplanes with him just touching a seat with residue and getting inflamed mucous membranes, anaphylactic shock from eating at a restaurant where they had changed their enchilada recipe to include peanut butter mole sauce, to many serious asthma attacks.

my second son thankfully has no allergies or asthma! there were no peanuts in the house after the legume allergy was discovered. 2nd son loves peanut butter though but i am careful not to let him leave any residue anywhere.

if you are dealing with this in your child, i wish you the best and know how hard it can be....

I extremely have a severe peanut hypersensitive reaction... if his mum maintains to be with him he ought to be fantastic. she would have the capacity to be so careful approximately what he eats and save a watch on him. so theres much less aggravating for you. save foodstuff wrappers reachable so his mum can verify the factors checklist. yet there are a number of meals that are fantastic for him, like chips, carrot sticks, pizza, sandwiches. in case you have truffles or cakes or something, in basic terms cause them to your self and dont upload any nuts, of course. flour, butter, eggs, etc are fantastic for nut allergies. dont throw out the peanut butter, whether that's in a cabinet it wont harm him. dont serve ANY nut containing foodstuff, if different childrens consume it then touch him or breathe on him in any respect, then he would desire to react to it. so im afraid it is going to ought to be entirely peanut-loose foodstuff out on the tables.
