I'm not supposed to eat peanuts as my hubby is allergic to them and all nuts actually. My midwife told me there were teo theories on it, one saying that you shouldn't eat them if there is a family history of allergy and another view saying that if baby has never been in contact with a substance then how can they build up and anti bodies to it? My mil thinks it has something to do with the ezema (spelling?!) cream they had when they were babies, apparently it had nut oil which they think has caused a lot of the nut allergies and I have heard that a few times from other sources too. I still eat the cashews and other nuts, but not really peanuts. I kinda think if you took every sinlge thing on board then you would spend 9 months in a bubble and put bubs into a bubble as soon as it was born! Of course this all could change next week when they find new things you can and can't do!]]> Wed, 31 May 2006 09:52:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49674&title=peanuts-etc#49674 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49654&title=peanuts-etc#49654 Author: jack_&_charli

The only thing I probably haven't eaten *at all* throughout this pregnancy is sushi, but can't say I've missed it too terribly much... now that you ladies have mentioned it though, I think I'll have to commission hubby to get some salmon and avocado sushi rolls especially for after the birth ! ]]> Tue, 30 May 2006 16:45:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49576&title=peanuts-etc#49576 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49522&title=peanuts-etc#49522 Author: Maya

Peanuts are onlya risk if you have a strong family history of allergies, or have already had a child with allergies. I am a peanut-free zone this pregnancy because Maya was allergic to dairy, egg, soy and peanut.
That said, there is no evidence that foods actually cross the placental barrier in a form which may cause allergies in an infant later on. It is far more important to avoid 'risk' foods (in my case dairy, egg and peanut) when breastfeeding, as teh allergens are passed thru breastmilk. Learnt this the hard way when Maya got very sick - she was getting traces of dairy thru my breastmilk.]]> Tue, 30 May 2006 14:27:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49522&title=peanuts-etc#49522 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49520&title=peanuts-etc#49520 Author: Millie1976

Mmmmm. I've been having peanut butter and banana on muffin split for breakfast for the past few days. I figure it's a good protein source and the list of foods I'm not supposed to eat is big enough. (18 weeks to sushi...)

I've only heard that peanuts can be trouble if you happen to ba carrying a child with a severe peanut allergy!!  That said, I haven't avoided them and nuts are just good for you... especially almonds (which I've made a point of eating every now and then).  ]]> Tue, 30 May 2006 10:00:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49463&title=peanuts-etc#49463 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49454&title=peanuts-etc#49454 Author: mrs frantic

hmmm well Ihave allergies and asthma and I have been eating peanuts quite often, I dont much like meat so I need to get extra protein somewhere...my personal view is that if you are going to get those things you are going to get them, regardless of what mum eats during pregnancy, but I could be wrong. I dont think it is something you can really quantify, but if you want to be ultre safe maybe avoid them?

My Mum was told by her Dr she should eat heaps of peanuts when she was pregnant with me (I cant remeber the reason), and I have had asthma and allergies my whole life. It might have nothing to do with why I have asthma etc, but researchers have apparently found a link between eating peanuts, and your baby having allergies. But my baby might be more likely to have allergies since I do,...who knows! (But Im not eating anything with peanuts, I hardly do anyway!)
Like others have said, the health Gurus always find something that u should not have, we wouldnt eat anything if we believed every thing they said!
I agree with moderation! ]]> Tue, 30 May 2006 09:02:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49448&title=peanuts-etc#49448 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49438&title=peanuts-etc#49438 Author: Millie1976

I eat all of them....I did with Paige too.
Some say if you eat them whilst pregnant it can set off allergies later in life....Who knows?

The health gurus say one thing one year then another thing the next!!
My theory too...everything in moderation!

I've also heard that it's only if you have a history of allergies or it runs in the family that you need to be careful, and of course I second the moderation thing, you'd probably get sick of them after a little while at least... I'm still eating them every now and then though.]]> Mon, 29 May 2006 20:58:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49398&title=peanuts-etc#49398 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2654&PID=49391&title=peanuts-etc#49391 Author: Bizzy
