Yes! Feeding allergenic foods to babies starting at 4 months of age is safe and is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the USDA. Ready. Set. Food! Stage 1 Mix-Ins start with peanut, egg, and milk, introducing a low dose of each allergen, one at a time before slowly increasing to the maintenance amount used in the clinical studies.

Symptoms of an allergic reaction will usually occur within minutes after eating a food you are allergic to, and almost always will occur within 2 hours. Typical symptoms of an allergic reaction for babies and young children are hives (red raised bumps) and vomiting. Every baby is different and may have a different reaction. If your baby has an allergic reaction, you should stop use and contact your medical provider. To learn more about food allergic reaction symptoms, and what to do next, click here.

Early and sustained allergen introduction is recommended while breastfeeding. We designed Ready. Set. Food! to easily mix with breast milk in a bottle, and with our product, breastfeeding mothers can continue to exclusively nurse without having to introduce solids before their baby is ready to eat them.

You will need a minimum of 2 oz of breastmilk, formula, or baby food to mix with Ready. Set. Food!. If you typically feed your baby more than 2 oz you can continue to prepare the bottle, or food, as you normally would.

If you're experiencing clumps, it is most likely due to not shaking the bottle hard enough. Try adding a little warm breast milk or formula and shake well for 5-10 seconds to help. If you’re breastfeeding and you're worried you’ll damage the nutrients in your milk, don’t be. It's a common misconception that shaking breast milk harms the nutrients given there isn’t any published data to support the claim.
