At Charlie Banks’ 9 month appointment his ped gave us the go ahead to try all foods except honey. We came home and I decided to let him try a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch. Low and behold ten minutes later the poor buddy was broken out in raised hives and had me in a panic! Several appointments with the allergist, skin and blood tests later and we have a high risk peanut allergy diagnosis. He gave blood like a pro. I’m not going to lie and say we weren’t bummed out about it, but it’s not the end of the world and could always be much worse. We are stocked with epi pens and pray that we never have to use them!
