Hi, I am allergic to oranges and my partner to penicillin, but our daughter is not allergic to either, our doctor said that allergies are not usually heridatry. However, I did avoid eating peanuts whilst pregnant as if you or partner have allergies I was told to avoid peanuts. Hope this helps x

Hi, I'm gluten intollarent and my husband is allergic to lactose and is ashmatic. Our daughter is a year old and is allergic to wheat and lactose intollarent. I ate very healthy when I was pregnant and never ate peanuts, I still have not tested if my daughter is allergic to peanut as we have been told to wait until she is 2 years old. I personally didn't want to eat peanut because of my husband ashma and allergy to lactose but my daughter was still born intollrence and allergies. But if I did eat peanut she might of been worse off, I would avoid it if I was you seeing that you husband has many allergies.
Hope this helps.
