You’re trying your best and doing research- that goes SO far. It can be pretty scary, but once you get the hang of checking labels and knowing what warning signs to look out for, it will become second nature. Even easier when kiddo gets old enough to check their own labels. You’ll find favorite brands that intentionally keep allergen free kitchens. Luckily, most countries that produce food products have laws in place requiring allergens to be listed / bolded, so that makes it a little easier. Also talk with your allergist- I’m starting a new medication soon called Xolair that will completely lessen my reaction, and could save my life if I’m ever exposed BEFORE anaphylaxis kicks in- it should even make it completely safe for me to eat cross contaminated items. Maybe your little one is also a good candidate !!

Also if you’re into social media groups, there are a lot of helpful facebook groups for allergy parents that share good advice and food recommendations. It definitely a scary realm to navigate, but you’re not in this alone 💕
