My son loves Bio Bambino meals and for a super fussy eater this is amazing! A win for me knowing he is eating a certified organic and nutritious meal, and a win for him as he is full and happy! Highly recommend for a mum on the go!

Lauren and Sebastian, Armadale

Being a mum to a 17month old and working full time, there is no such thing as cooking time after work. By the time I picked up my LO from crèche at 5pm, we are both exhausted.  Since coming across Bio Bambino, I don’t have to stress about going to the shop after work and best thing is I don’t have to think “what am I going to cook for the little one tonight!”. It’s there ready in the freezer, a different meal for everyday. All I have to remember is to take it out in the morning to defrost and heat it up once I’m home and dinner is ready for my little man. Highly…highly recommend it!! A must try product. Oh forgot to mention how tasty it is as well. If only they could make bigger serve for adult too.

Sophia and Eden

Love Bio Bambino, so glad to have a healthy pre-packaged option on the market, that my baby loves to eat!

Sienna, South Melbourne

As new parents we’re conscious about ensuring that our daughter eats healthy food made with quality ingredients. Bio Bambino ticks all the boxes and our little Phoebe just loves it.

Danny and Katie Whelan

I have a very fussy 2 and a half year old and just can’t get him to eat anything, especially veggies. I have tried Bio Bambino and have to say it has taken the stress out of meal time. Harry absolutely loves the food especially the Chicken Barley Risotto with Pumpkin and Broccoli. Dinner is no longer a battle and now something we can both look forward to. Can’t wait to try all the meals

Food sensitive babies | Melbourne

When babies are sensitive to food

Once medical issues have been eliminated with your doctor, the following symptoms can sometimes be food related:

  • RASHES or ECZEMA

  • REFLUX/VOMITING

For exclusively breast fed babies, this means the foods in the mother's diet while for formulae fed babies this applies to the formulae provided. Once baby starts some solids, sometimes the issues may improve eg less mucous in stools or sometimes can worsen.

The great difficulty is these symptoms above can be the same regardless of what is causing the issue. Food allergy and intolerance can look the same, if the allergy is mild. And often allergy may not show up on testing. If there is family history of allergies including food allergy, then consultation with a Medical Allergist or Immunologist should be considered to exclude the possibility of IgE reactions, the type of allergy that can cause serious reactions such as anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction that affects breathing and can be fatal).

 

It is possible but extremely unlikely that a breast fed baby would have anaphylaxis as a reaction to food passed through the breast milk. Any allergy reactions tend to be reduced and delayed when delivered via the breast milk.

FOOD PROTEINS

The protein in  cow's milk (dairy), egg, peanut and tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish and shell fish and lupin account for 90% of the allergies in people in Australia. Other foods can cause allergies but they are less common. All foods contain protein, so potentially any food can cause an allergy. There are many different proteins in foods so potentially could be any number of the proteins in the whole food causing the allergy issues.

Allergy testing can test for IgE mediated allergies which are the more serious type of allergy that have the potential to cause anaphylaxis (although rare). These tests are blood tests and skin prick tests. These tests do not pick up on the cell mediated allergies which are not associated with anaphylaxis, and may often have delayed reactions.

 

Skin prick tests are commonly done with children and adults but are less sensitive in children less than 2 years of age. Some doctors will perform them in babies , although less likely if symptoms are not severe.


Some allergies do not show up on testing and these are called cell mediated allergies. Only a carefully constructed elimination diet will be able to identify these foods. These types of allergies can be treated in a similar fashion to whole food intolerance.

​​

While 2 - 4% of Australian adults reportedly have food allergies, up to 10% of infants (less than 12 months) and 4 - 8 % of children less than 5 years of age have food allergies in Australia. 

The most common IgE mediated food allergy foods (comes up on testing) in babies under 12 months are

  • egg

  • cow's milk

  • peanut

The most common non IgE mediated food allergies (do not come up on testing) in babies under 12 months are

  • cow's milk

  • soy

  • wheat

Milk, soy and egg allergies commonly resolve over time. Most young children grow out of their milk allergy by 3-5 years of age, with 85%  grown out of  their milk allergy by 5 years of age. Roughly 50% tend to grow out of their egg allergy by the age of 6. Peanut and tree nut allergies tend to persist or be life long.

FOOD CHEMICALS & BABIES

​Some food sensitive babies may have reactions to natural chemicals in foods: salicylates, amines and glutamates as well as food additives such as preservatives and MSG. Often there may be a family history of such sensitivities and maybe reactions noted when a baby is given liquid pain relief which is very high in flavours as well as added food preservatives. 

 

These chemicals are spread out among lots of different foods, and are dose related. This means that reactions may only occur after a certain amount of the chemical is eaten so foods may seem to be ok one day but not another day. Allergies can often be easier to pick as small amounts of the offending food bring on a reaction.  

 

More about food chemicals and additives.

FODMAPS & BABIES

'Windy foods' such as cabbage, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower and legumes are often thought to cause issues for some sensitive breast-fed babies, but the mechanism of how this happens remains unclear. Note that some 'windy' foods like cauliflower are high in FODMAPs while cabbage is generally low in FODMAPs.

 

Until recently, FODMAPs consumed by the mother were not considered to affect the breast-feeding baby as FODMAPs were not thought to pass into the maternal milk supply. There has been a very recent study, however, that shows a reduction of colic symptoms in young babies under 9 weeks of age when the mother followed a short term low FODMAP diet (Locovou et al, 2018).

More about FODMAPs.

Food Related Issues for Sensitive Babies

REFLUX: 1/3 to ½ serious reflux cases associated with cow’s milk protein, although other foods can also be implicated.

COLIC: A low FODMAP diet may help for babies diagnosed with colic, although can also be due to food proteins as well as food chemicals. Colic has been shown to usually improve as a baby matures, without any action been taken.

ECZEMA: food is only one of many triggers so for many cases food may not be a trigger at all. However, food can for some babies exacerbate their eczema, such as cow's milk protein/soy and egg.

COLITIS (blood in the stools): cell mediated allergy (wont show up in blood or skin testing).  

Cow's milk protein an issue in 50-65% of colitis cases, while soy is often implicated as well.

Other protein foods can also trigger colitis as well such as wheat and can also be caused by natural food chemicals.

CONSTIPATION: most common trigger food is cow's milk protein, although food chemicals can also be a problem.

ELIMINATING FOODS and Breastfeeding

Important things to consider if eliminating foods from your diet:

  • Commonly when whole foods such as dairy, soy and wheat are eliminated, you can end up with not knowing what to eat, and inadequately replacing lost calories and nutrients

  • This can affect your own nutritional intake, result in lack of energy (just when you need it the most)  and unwanted weight loss along with the other impacts of poor nutrition

  • Milk production can be negatively impacted

  • Delaying introduction of allergens to a baby after the age of 1 can actually cause an IgE allergy to develop so providing allergen exposure where ever it is medically safe to do so is really important.  

Any food elimination needs to be thought about in respect to the above.​ Exclusion of food allergens needs to be properly constructed with replacement of lost nutrients, with a plan that looks at time lines and food trials via breast milk to help determine tolerance and maximise food reintroductions as tolerated.

Don't do it alone- find out how you can best support your and your baby's nutritional needs while managing food sensitivities.
