Should i avoid nuts?

[Tartanmam]

Ds has had an allergic reaction to egg and cream (facial swelling both times). I have an appointment at the hospital in a couple of months time but was wondering whether it was ok to give him nuts (thinking almonds in a museli bar or something not peanuts) or if i should avoid them until he is older now he already has food allergys?

I know the advice is usually to avoid until they are a year but wasn't sure how that changes now hes reacted to other foods.

I would go to anaphylaxis.org.uk and ask them for some sensible advice - they will know, whereas in my experience at least you are likely to get different advice from every medical professional you see!

my health visitor advised no nuts until ds2 was 8 years old!
