@VenterCarina @Dubai_allergy @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy @BSACI_Allergy And we are highlighting importance of breastfeeding. But I know the debates will continue to run....

[Mary Feeney @mary_feeney]

@VenterCarina @Dubai_allergy @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy @BSACI_Allergy We know sensitisation (& therefore journey to allergy) to egg and peanut is happening early in higher risk infants and so needed to address that intervening before 6mo important for some infants....

@Dubai_allergy @VenterCarina @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy @BSACI_Allergy And this is not a blanket recommendation it is guidance to enable a discussion between individual higher risk families and their HCPs.

@VenterCarina @Dubai_allergy @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy @BSACI_Allergy Even I had to check 😉

@C_StedmanRD & I so busy discussing @BSACI_Allergy @BDA_FASG early feeding guidance at #BSACI2018 workshop yesterday we missed lunch 😭Great to see so much interest.

[Mary Feeney @mary_feeney]

@Dubai_allergy @VenterCarina @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy While I'm on topic.... the @BSACI_allergy early feeding guidance was collaboration including wide range of health care professionals, allergy charities, parents. We are really trying to support higher risk patients and the HCPs who advise them.

[Mary Feeney @mary_feeney]

@VenterCarina @Dubai_allergy @sallyann_denton @GoAllergy On LEAP 90% had intro 'any' formula at randomisation, 42% breastfeeding at randomisation. Other allergy prevention studies have included both breastfeeding and formula feeding infants e.g. BEAT, STEP. @BSACI_Allergy early feeding guidance not based on outcomes from one study!

My dad was born in Poland. Do you know how many people ever asked me whether or not I was born in America? Nobody ever asked me that.
