I don't know much about allergies, could be that eating peanuts
in pregnancy is also a bad idea if one has a hx of such allergies.
I think the issue of allergies is very complicated and even
the experts don't know very much about it.

Let's look at the bright side though. The program could have said
that Moms who eat peanuts shouldn't breastfeed, or if one has a hx
of peanut allergies one shouldn't breastfeed.
It's good to give people points when we can.
