Episode 58 - Baby Allergies


Listen Later

In this episode, Meg sits down with Christina from the Honest Hour podcast to catch up on how baby Connor is doing. Christina is a mom of 3, and has just got the results from Connor's allergy tests. Christina shares her experience with her middle child Lincoln's food allergies, which included eggs, avocado, banana, kiwi, and all three types of nuts. She explains how she discovered the allergies, the challenges of cooking with allergies, and Lincoln's eventual outgrowing of all allergies except cashews and pistachios. Meg provides scientific context and explains the importance of allergy testing before introducing solids. The dialogue also touches on the importance of EpiPens for severe allergies. The moms go on to talk about Allergy Sense, a book Meg co-authored Dr. Sarah Karabus. Meg shares some of the science behind introducing allergens and preventing allergies in general. Meg and Christina go on to talk about teething as Connor is showing signs of cutting his first tooth. Meg discusses the timeline for teething in 90% of babies and some of the signs that we misinterpret as teething. This leads them to talk about self-soothing - something that Christina has worked very hard on to help her babies sleep better and self soothe themselves to sleep on waking. Meg discusses cluster feeds, bedtime routines and Connor's tummy time routine. Listen for this and much more with Meg, Christina and newborn baby Connor.
