Peanut Butter ?

[pinkmac85]

When are you planning on introducing peanut butter to your LO? Or when DID you introduce it?

My daughter is almost a year old so I plan on waiting until a year. Her doctor said at her appt yesterday that she could start to have it as she has never had any allergies to previous foods and that she has eaten and that there is no history of peanut allergies in our family.
I am however going to wait until at least a year maybe a bit longer.

I was thinking about introducing it now, I'm going to speak to my HV this week.

I went to a weaning workshop with my friend on Monday and the HV said u can even have Peanut Butter when pregnant now as new research - - - - look at NHS CHOICES or NHS DIRECT for more information. Hope that helps

I gave pb to my lo at about 8 or 9 mths I think. No reaction whatsoever.

I've seen this info too. Only whole nuts are not receommended due to the choking risk.
