Babies and Allergies: The Top 8 Allergenic Foods

With each new food, you’ll want to be on the lookout for allergic reactions. There are more than 160 allergenic foods, but these eight foods and food groups are the culprits 90% of the time. You may want to wait until baby is older to try some of these foods, especially peanuts. In fact, many experts suggest waiting until your child is 3 before trying peanuts. Ask your pediatrician if you have any questions about a food.
  • Milk (susu)
  • Egg (telur)
  • Peanuts (kacang)
  • Tree nuts (such as walnuts or almonds)
  • Fish (ikan)
  • Shellfish (kerang)
  • Soy (soya)
  • Wheat (gandum)

Food Allergy Symptoms to Watch for in Your Baby

Food allergy symptoms usually appear very soon after the food is eaten -- within a few minutes to a couple of hours. If you’re introducing a new food to your baby, keep an eye out for these symptoms:
  • Hives (gatal-gatal)
  • Flushed skin or rash (kulit menggelupas atau ruam)
  • Face, tongue, or lip swelling (bengkak muka, lidah atau bibir)
  • Vomiting and/or diarrhea (muntah dan/atau cirit-birit)
  • Coughing or wheezing (batuk atau bersin)
  • Difficulty breathing (kesukaran bernafas)
  • Loss of consciousness (pitam/pengsan)

Severe Food Allergy Symptoms: When to Call 911

If your baby is having trouble breathing, has swelling on her face, or develops severe vomiting or diarrhea after eating, don’t take time to call your pediatrician. Call 911 immediately. Severe allergic reactions can be fatal very quickly.

PS :) My daughter has symptom such as running nose & watery eyes (selsema & mata berair). At 1st I taught running nose due to habuk & sejuk, which is also true, but mata berair pasti bukan sbb habuk & sejuk. Later I dig as she's bf, so when I eat something ada kacang & kerang, running nose become worst & mata akan berair. Pity my daughter, lpas tu br sy berhati-hati apa yang sy mkn. Anak anda bagaimana?
