  • Allergic reactions MOSToftendonotoccur witha first exposure butafterseveral. Thisiswhytheysaysometimes up toa week ona newfood before anynewones areintroduced. Italsomaynotbeanallergy. Thereisa condition called chronic hives youshouldlook up-mytoddler hasthisdiagnosis aftermuch allergen testing. Personally I wouldratheranactual allergy asthenI wouldknow whattoavoid! Itisalsonotuncommon forsmall children tohaveanepisode ortwo ofunexplained hives. I wouldrecommend speaking toherpediatrician aboutitbefore attempting togive ittoheragain though. Id thinka referral toanallergist isinorder.

  • first offdidu take hertothedoctor aftershebrokeout? andsecond offcouldshehadbroken out inhives fromsomething otherthenfood? bug bite maybe? well u cant besure sheisnt allergic tootherthings….unless shebreaksout again unfortunately buti wouldsuggest taking hertothedr asap ifshegets thehives again….better safe thensry,thatway theycanruntest onher. im notsure whatconsist ofthemango fruit snacks orwhatnotbutwatch red dye….alot ofpeople areallergic tored dye.

    Well…. shemightnotbeallergic tothemango. Keep inmind thatBaby food isalways used fromthehighest quality offruit. Whereas store boughtfruit ismore likelytobesprayed withsomething.

    Itismysuggestion tobeonthesafe side ofcourse,andrequest anallergen test beperformed onyourdaughter byherdoctor. Thiswillrule out anyallergies. Ona further note,children shouldnothavepeanuts,peanut butter andhoney. Thesefoods (whileeaten asa young child) cancause a allergy tothefood later inlife

  • youcant besure thats whatiswasfromgive hera small amount andsee whathappens (hives willnotkillher) ifshebreaksout youll know thats whatdiditandgive hersomebenydril
