Should I keep an allergy diary when introducing allergens?
⚡ Short answer: Yes, keeping track of when you introduce a new food, how much you give, and any reactions (rash, vomiting, diarrhea, fussiness) you see over the next 2–3 days is very helpful.

Do I need to keep an allergy diary to avoid mixing up which food causes reactions?

Yes, keeping track of when you introduce a new food, how much you give, and any reactions (rash, vomiting, diarrhea, fussiness) you see over the next 2–3 days is very helpful. Doing this makes it much easier to identify which food is responsible. You can keep a simple notebook or notes on your phone — what matters is being consistent. If you see a serious allergic reaction (hives, difficulty breathing, lip swelling), seek emergency care without delay.
