I've had it since I was 2? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693439 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 07:41:34 +0000 Anagram 693439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My little sister had a major allergy to eggs, tree nuts, and shellfish and a dairy intolerance. </p> <p>She grew out of the egg and dairy allergy by around 4 (I can't remember, but until then, my mom always made this one recipe of eggless, dairy free cake for her birthdays), and just recently found out she's not allergic to shellfish anymore--she's 26 now.</p> <p>The tree nut allergy is just as severe as ever---possibly more severe. One teeeeny bit of nut dust in her food means constricted airways, violent throwing up, rashes, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693335 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 03:27:37 +0000 SugarplumsMom 693335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yin: aww:(</p> <p>DD is allergic to egg, milk and wheat. It could be other things as well because those were the only things she tested for! I'm hoping she grows out of them or the poor girl will never know real cake, cupcakes, or cookies ... Ice cream. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693283 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 23:12:59 +0000 Rubies 693283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Nononono, in a week we find out the results of her blood test. It's out of 100. Anything above 100 means she's severely allergic (ie. she needs an Epi pen). Anything around 50 means she'll probably outgrow her allergy by the time she's 4-5. And if it's 2 or under, they'll do a live test (ie. bring her into the doctor, feed her dairy and see what happens). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693215 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 22:00:22 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 693215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sunny had milk issues when she was tiny, but was fine after 6 months. </p> <p>In other news, I was lactose intolerant until I became a mother! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693163 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:26:48 +0000 PurplePumps 693163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My brother has. He used to be allergic to dairy, chocolate, and a bunch of other things but now he can eat almost anything. He's still allergic to nuts though. My other brother is allergic to dairy, wheat, fish, nuts, and soy, and has never grown out of any of it. I had never been allergic to anything, but a few years ago I developed allergies to shrimp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693143 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:22:23 +0000 Beebug 693143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Used to be allergic to rhubarb and strawberries! Broke out in hives! Now I have to eat like a bowl of fresh (off the vine!) strawberries before I get a few hives on my palms (I totally do this when strawberries come in season).</p> <p>They are two of my faves so I am glad I can handle them now.</p> <p>I think I have on/off lactose intolerance now, so bitter about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693114 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:10:38 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 693114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: wow! So one week can make a difference? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693110 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:10:11 +0000 LovelyPlum 693110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sisters and I all outgrew our milk allergy. Not sure how long it took, but it was before high school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693053 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 20:43:14 +0000 Rubies 693053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So as it turns out, LO is still allergic. But she got a blood test today to determine just how allergic she is and if she might outgrow it. We'll see in a week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693045 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 20:40:04 +0000 immabeetoo 693045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was lactose intolerant and grew out of it in high school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-693032 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 20:33:39 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 693032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: hopefully you get good news! </p> <p>I used to have a sensitivity to chocolate but now I can eat as much as I want :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-692971 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 20:08:13 +0000 Pepper 692971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be allergic to face paint and makeup. When I started wearing a little bit of makeup in 7th grade (pressed powder and lip gloss), I always had to get Almay or Clinique... something hypoallergenic. I outgrew it in high school (thankfully, because I'm a makeup addict!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-692866 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 19:19:06 +0000 yin 692866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is allergic to cow's milk, peanut, and eggs. He was tested at 13 months and again at 20 months. All allergies remain the same, but they think he may outgrow the milk and egg allergy. So far I don't see him outgrowing the milk allergy though. DH gave LO some ice cream last week just to test, and it was not pretty :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-692067 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:55:24 +0000 Rescuemom10 692067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH use to have a problem being around cats and was allergic. We have three cats now. Doesnt bother him at all anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-692062 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:54:22 +0000 ShootingStar 692062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was little I was allergic to strawberries - they gave me some kind of rash. But I kept eating them anyways because I loved them and eventually it stopped bothering me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-692043 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:49:42 +0000 Bookish 692043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I had a dairy allergy as baby but grew out of that except for sporadic episodes throughout my life where if I drink too much milk I get acid reflux. I also tested allergic to cats but have never had a problem with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691977 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:30:13 +0000 MamaMoose 691977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hubs and I don't have any allergies. But a good friend of mine outgrew her nut allergy. Then in her early twenties she gained intolerances to dairy and gluten... and then by her late twenties she outgrew those! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691949 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:23:28 +0000 pui 691949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I developed an allergy to raw banana around age 20. So far I haven't out grown any of my many allergies lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691896 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:07:25 +0000 chopsuey 691896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope she's outgrown it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691891 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:05:29 +0000 illumina 691891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure if this counts as an allergy, but I grew out of eczema by about age 6. It happened when we moved house, so my parents thought it might be the water or carpets or something specific to the first house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691878 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:02:52 +0000 Mrs. Bee 691878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>charlie had a mild cow's milk allergy. probably more of an intolerance. he seems ok with it now when he's had hot chocolate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-your-so-or-your-lo-outgrow-an-allergy#post-691872 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:00:39 +0000 Rubies 691872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend had a severe shellfish allergy since childhood but has recently found out through allergy testing that he is no longer allergic. He celebrated by eating shrimp for the first time - but he hated it. :)</p> <p>It was discovered last year when LO was 8 months old that she had a dairy allergy. Today, my DH has taken her back to get tested (one year later) to see if she has outgrown it, as many children ultimately do. I'm still waiting to hear back.</p> <p>Did you ever outgrow an allergy? SO? LO? </p>
