Can you eat peanuts?

Because Im eating them now and they are awesome?

I don't normally eat many nuts or nut products, but soon as I am pg I do. I have peanut butter almost every morning on my toast.

There are some reports that suggest this will cause my DDnearly 3 and bub on the way to have nut allegies. DD1 doesn't have any and can eat peanut butter with no reaction. So for me and my children I don't have any issues with it.

Everyone is different though.

I think if there are allergies in your family from them, then be cautious. Otherwise, go for it! :)

Some 'experts' say you can and some say you shouldn't. I did, (as have soooo many other people) and my kids are fine. The only thing I think is to take into consideration when weighing up the decision is if you have nut allergies, you might want to avoid them. Otherwise, I would say ENJOY!!

Oh great no family history :D

Thanks girls, Ive made myself feel sick lol

I haven't yet but I want them now!!

Hi hon, I remember asking the same question. It turns out I ate HEAPS of nuts including peanuts almost every day! the only family history is a 1st cousin who has to carry around one of they injection thingo cause he's allergic :o but I read that you can cause allergies by avoiding foods so I just ate them. enjoy :)

cherished - in that case, there is no way my baby will be allergic to chocolate then :)

or mine to cheeseburgers haha

ROFL Ahurani!!!!!

Can youse all stop with the peanut talk, I keep having to send DH down the road for celery whenever peanuts are mentioned, and the other night peanut butter as well!

hahah what a crack up, I doubt my DS will be allergic to chocolate too ;)
