4.8: What Parents Actually Need to Know About Allergies (with Dr. A - Pediatric Allergist)

This week we’re joined by Dr. A, a pediatric allergist based in Toronto (and also Amanda’s son Arlo’s allergist 👶🏼). We’re diving into all the big allergy questions you’ve sent in — from when to introduce allergens, to FPIES, to figuring out whether your kid has an allergy or just a sensitivity.


Some of the burning questions Dr. A answers:

  • Can you prevent allergies during pregnancy?
  • The truth about genetics and allergies?
  • How early you can test your baby?
  • What are FPIES and why it’s confusing AF
  • When to use the dairy ladder for CMPA
  • What to actually have on hand when introducing allergens
  • Why allergies are so common now — and if online tests are worth it
  • Concerns with Benadryl and her suggested alternatives


Whether you’re prepping for solids, navigating eczema, or already deep in allergy life — this one’s packed with helpful info and real talk. Let’s gooo!
