Toddler peanut allergy

[Igglepiggle3]

Hello
I am after some advice
I have a 2 year old and at around the 8ish month mark whilst weaning I tried introducing a little peanut butter.
There was a a weird reaction whereby there was a lot irritation, and then became very sleepy and floppy. I immediately got very concerned and I am embarrassed to say but I called 999. The reason why I was concerned is that my mum and my brother have a peanut allergy but I kept reading I should introduce these foods to prevent any allergies.
Following that incident we have had skin prick tests and blood tests - all of which came back ok and suggest no intolerance. However, there have been occasions with blotches around mouth following a tomato and lentil soup and hoummous. The hospital said they would do a food challenge which we had an appt for last May. Obviously this didnt happen because of covid. It will now be another 6-8 months but the skin prick tests and blood tests would need redoing.
They suggested doing a ‘food challenge’ at home which I am extremely nervous about. I was thinking of trying the hoummus again but now not so sure. What if there is a reaction and no ambulances can get here in time because of covid?
Any advice? And am I being over cautious?

“ Does breastfeeding make a difference because I am still breastfeeding...”

None whatsoever. I breastfed both my kids to 18 months one is allergic the other isn’t.

OP I have a child with severe allergies for which he carries epipens for.

Getting irritated and going floppy is a reaction and 999 is absolutely the solution to that.
Allergy tests aren't very accurate, so you can't really rely on that.

I certainly wouldn't be doing a good challenge at home with the lack of paramedics and ambulances.

Wait it out until it can be done in hospital.

@TeenagePITA - my thoughts exactly...

That’s really interesting to hear.... since the event I thought I had been over reacting - but at the time it was so unlike him. Usually I have to rock him to sleep - have done since he was small and still now. He had the peanut butter and became very sleepy, like literally falling asleep which had never happened to that point and still doesn’t! I was calling his name to try and keep him awake. At the time I was so scared that if I let him go to sleep he wouldn’t wake up. As soon as I called 999 and they were asking questions he seemed ok, hence why I thought I was overreacting.
