[quote=Anonymous]Hi there- we’ve been giving my 7 month old daughter a little peanut butter for the last month and the last two times she ate it, she vomited a couple times about 1.5 hours after eating it. She does not appear to have any skin or breathing reactions immediately after eating it or along with the vomiting. Is this a peanut allergy? It’s clearly a reaction to the peanuts (now that it happened two times in a row) but it seems odd that it is delayed and is not accompanied by anaphylactic responses (like hives or wheezing). Is there such a thing as peanut intolerance or sensitivity that’s different from a nut allergy or is this just wishful thinking?

One other data point: Before introducing peanuts (or any solids) we took her to a pediatric gastro b/c she was having mucousy stool with small amounts of blood. The doctor said this was likely an insensitivity to milk or soy but not an allergy. IGg ca IGe in think is what they said. The stool issues have now resolved but now this.

I’m pretty stressed out about this and given covid-19 don’t think it makes sense to take the baby to the doctor for this right now. Would welcome everyone’s insights or advice. [/quote]
