Question

My baby of 8 months has food allergies but I don't know yet what he is allergic to. What kind of foods normally cause allergies in babies ?

Answer

There are several foods that commonly cause allergies, such as milk, eggs, wheat, gluten, nuts, sesame seeds, soya, lupin, celery, celariac, mustard, sulphur dioxide / sulphites, fish, shellfish and molluscs.

 

There is some advice in my article here but I would advise you visit yout GP who can arrange for tests to identify those foods most likely to cause allergy for your little one.

 

Good luck and do let us know how you get on.
