   Though it is possible for your baby to be allergic to a certain food, the supposed food allergy is many times something else. About six percent of younger children in the United States have a food allergy. When your baby is allergic to a food his immune system goes to work. It attacks the food like it was an enemy. If your baby eats this food again his immune system will cause histamine to be released. The histamine and other substances his body releases make allergic symptoms happen. These symptoms could be difficulty breathing, hives, fast pulse, heart beat irregular, very pale skin, vomiting, diarrhea, and swelling. He could lose consciousness. These are serious reactions. But baby less than six months old don't normally have allergies. They haven't had enough exposure to allergic substances. But sometimes that have allergic reactions when less than six months old. A severe allergic reaction is called anaphylactic shock.
