| Bekah, my guess is because caesar dressing and cheese contain milk and/or egg. Experts now believe that if the mother consumes foods that contain a high amount of any of the main known allergy producing foods (eggs,milk,shellfish,wheat,peanuts,soy) that this puts the child at a greater risk of being allergic to these foods. Food allergies have been on the rise in the past few years and this is their latest guess of how to try and prevent your child from having food allergies. However it is almost impossible to avoid these foods completely in everything you eat and remain healthy during pregnancy. So my suggestion is to maybe just limit your intake of these foods rather than completely avoid them if you are concerned. |
