Just want to add that a medic alert bracelet or necklace is still a good idea. If someone has a reaction, people will search and find it. Especially ambulance crews. I know this isn't a preventative but it will help to quickly identify the cause and how to treat it.
Thanks MG, i was thinking a medicalert aswell, i think i might try one of the bright red kids ones the says anaphylaxis on it and then when she's older if she hasn't 'outgrown' the allergy will get her a more 'normal' looking merdicalert type bracelet.
what I like about the offical medicalert ones is that you actually register the medical conditions etc with the company. The bracelet has a number on it that the person calls, they get the information, and treat. You can also have them engraved with peanut allergy" etc.
I think for outings and so forth, a sticker on her clothing is a great way to go. You don't even need to spend loads of money - go to office works and get self adhesive labels, write on it in big bold letters, and put on her.
