How can I tell if my son has food allergies?

Posted by: Baby Food Grinder  /  Category: baby food questions

My son is 8 months old. We give him Gerber cereal and jarred food. No matter what he eats he rubs his eyes and face (as if they itch) shortly after he starts eating. Could this be some sort of allergy? If so, what can I feed him? Anyone had the same problem?

Can introducing food at 5 months cause baby to spit up more?

Posted by: Baby Food Grinder  /  Category: baby food questions

I give him cereal and sometimes banana or applesauce baby food mixed together. Is spitting up a sign of allergy to a food? Should I wait about food. What could cause all of a sudden spitting up a lot? He’s been eating for about a month and I haven’t had any problems with the cereal or baby food. I also breastfeed so could this have something to do with it ?
