If you suspect that your baby is allergic to a particular baby food, speak to your doctor who can refer you to a specialist. Do not exclude foods from your baby’s diet without a proper diagnosis. If your baby does develop an allergy be reassured that many babies grow out of this allergy by the age of five (see section on food allergies).
