Introducing Allergens To Babies Without Losing Your Mind: Peanut, Egg, Soy, Eczema, Daycare Schedules

Introducing Allergens To Babies Without Losing Your Mind: Peanut, Egg, Soy, Eczema, Daycare Schedules

Allergens are a whole job. We dig into how we’re introducing peanut, egg, soy, tree nuts, fish, and sesame with daycare schedules, eczema concerns, and big feelings. We compare BLW vs purees, talk through an egg reaction and baked-egg tolerance, and share realistic ways to keep exposure going after that first weekend trial. Plus: fair rides, home videos, and the iPhone shared-album hack that keeps our storage chaos under control.
