Feeding issues

Just like adults can have allergic reactions, newborns and babies can have allergies too. Allergies in children happen when a child's immune system notices a strange or harmful substance, and then overreacts to that substance. Anything that causes an allergic reaction is known as an allergen. This explainer will detail the many types of allergies babies and young children can have — including milk allergies, other food allergies, and pollen allergies — as well as how a pediatrician can help your child with allergies.
