Having seen LOTS of babies whose hair stood up straight (I call it
"perpetual surprise haircut!") and many others (not necessarily the same
kids) who have allergies, I do NOT link the two.
In the USA, however, be aware that there could very well be overlap simply
because so many many mothers are told to drink lots of milk during
pregnancy and to continue doing so during breastfeeding (on the mistaken
assumption that you have to drink milk to make milk!). That assumption, of
course, is fallacious.
