Keep track of the allergens your child has tried

FirstBites can help you remember which allergens your child has tried and when. The overview is practical support, not medical advice.

What you can do now

Three simple steps

Foods that commonly cause reactions

Egg, fish, milk, nuts, peanuts, shellfish, soya and wheat are among the foods behind most reactions in young children.

Log what you try

Note when your child tries a food. That makes it easier to follow up and remember what has been offered.

Know when to ask for help

If your child has a known allergy, severe eczema or a previous reaction, get advice from a healthcare professional before trying relevant foods.

How FirstBites can help

Keep track of the allergens your child has tried, so it is easier to remember what may need follow-up.

When to ask for advice

Contact your child health clinic or doctor if you are concerned. If your child is at high risk of peanut allergy, introduce peanut with a doctor's advice.
