Tyler has been having potato for quite a while now and seemed to be going ok with it. A few weeks ago he started rubbing his eyes alot while eating and getting food in his eyes (so messy!). After he had problems with his iron supplement I stopped all solid foods for a few days and then introduced them again one at a time. He was fine with pumpkin and then last night I gave him some french fries and a teething rusk made from potato flour, and he immediately started rubbing his eyes. He doesnt seem to have any of the usual allergy symptoms from potato like rash, stomach cramps, nightwakings etc, just the rubbing eyes.

Do you think that just the eye rubbing is enough to say he is allergic??

I don’t think so. Marisa did that after we switched her from the
Neocate to Alimentum but it went away after 7-10 days. So it may have
been from the food switch in her case but maybe just an adjustment
period? Although that would be odd since he’d had potato for some time.
But if that is his only symptom, probably not worth avoiding, right?
