In case anyone wanted an update on the bed apocalypse which took over the laundry room. DH took care of 20 bees (most of them dead) in the laundry room yesterday. Today there were about a dozen (most of them dead) in the laundry room.

DH says "see it's getting better"
Nice try. I'm still not doing laundry. 🐝😜
We would all be wearing wedding clothes and swim suits in my house before I would do laundry in a bee filled room.
tincupchalice jelly over here. It's still eleventy billion degrees over here. AC is still broken, house is hot, humid, and sticky. And due to being outside so much the last few days trying to escape the sweltering house, I'm covered in super itchy quarter sized bug bites. I'm just a little bitter. Lol
Humidity is the worst. It was like, 20% yesterday and we were all dying, lol! The dryness is the only reason I'm getting away with no AC, it's still low nineties here.
Can I just say how amazing it is how quickly guidelines change? DD was born F13, and everyone and their pedis were staunchly in the "food before 6 months is a hard no" camp.
I know. I feel like everything has changed 3x since my 5 year old was a baby.

The newest recommendations are to introduce egg and peanuts between 4-6 months to decrease allergies. The results for fish and gluten were that early introduced didn't make a difference. I think the epidemic of peanut allergy likely came from the years when allergens were introduced really late.

Funny you mention this. My SIL is a dietitian and my brother (her H) is anaphylactic to the SCENT of nuts. He was just reminiscing about how he was the only one in elementary school with a nut allergy and the school nurse called him years later to say "there's someone just like you!" Now there's children with allergies in almost every class!! Anyway, my SIL was involved with a study that suggested exactly what you said, peanut allergy epidemic is likely due to delayed introduction. Edit: clarity
Silly question, but how would you all recommend giving peanuts to a baby? Obviously whole nuts are not an option and it seems like peanut butter could be problematic for her to eat too.

There are these peanut puff things called Bamba. Or a little peanut butter on your finger to suck on.
