How do you develop allergies??


Question: I want to know, are they from when you are a baby? Is it when you do not eat a type of food when you are a baby (i.e. Nuts) and then you eat it later in life? Or is it herediatry? I have an 8 month old and I am worried he will have some allergies if I dont expose him to certain things. Is there a way to prevent allregies?
Answers: Heredity plays a role. Also the timing of the introduction of foods can play a part.

This site explains some basics of when to feed babies and what.

Sorry he is born with them. it would be best to see a doctor and see if you can get him tested for any. Remember if you see any sudden swelling RUN to the hospital it mite be a sign of allergies. not any small swelling like a mosquito but sudden big swelling and maybe if he has a shortness of breath.
