The two flavors complement each other so well, and I can taste the nuances of the peanut butter even more. Thanks to all who cautioned about eating too much during pregnancy. I will try to show restraint when that time comes. :) Not pregnant yet, but I have recently fallen in love with peanut butter mixed with softened coconut oil, either on toast, a banana, or by itself.

Whenever I ate/drank alot of dairy products while nursing, my little one would come down with eczema on her skin which cleared up when I cut it out of my diet. Excess sugar (especially because of ice cream) also contributed to yeast problems in my nursling if not myself. If what one eats has such an affect on a nursing baby I believe that it would affect a baby in utero causing sensitivities later on as well. Oh yes I just remembered something else.

No one has any peanut allergies but because of excessive nut eating my three and one year olds get bumpy rough skin all over their body. They both nurse and their skin clears up when I stay away from the nuts and seeds ( only flax seeds seem to not bother them. The nuts and seeds are raw ). I have also had two aquaintances who ate alot of peanut butter during their pregnancies because it was the only protein they could stomach . Their children ended up with severe peanut and nut/sesame seed allergies causing anaphylactic symptoms. It seems that we all need to exercise caution with nuts. The allergies associated with them are life threatening and nerve wracking since their oils are in so many products. Sorry to be the wet rag on the topic, but I hope this helps someone.

I also know someone who supposedly ate alot of pb during her pregnancy and her son is highly allergic. Who knows. But I guess that goes for anything-variety is best.(Not that it stopped me from eating it or anything!) :) Have you tried other nut butters? I know they're usually pricier, but maybe some variety would be good once in awhile. I love almond butter and sunbutter-made from sunflower seeds instead of peanuts-so yummy! You can check it out on sunbutter.com. I love peanut butter,too! I also know someone who supposedly ate alot of pb during her pregnancy and her son is highly allergic. Who knows.

I think the main issue for those without peanut allergies is the aflatoxin. A mold that they say is very prevalent in most Peanut Butters. I've read about it in a number of other places (blogs mostly), but this was the most extensive site I've seen on it so far. http://www.deanesmay.com/archives/007598.html But, we do still eat a lot of peanut butter. :( I love the blog. Thanks for putting so much effort into it! It is truly a blessing. Sarah I read about it recently myself on the NT Yahoo Discussion group.

I will have to research this further. Thanks! I did discover from the <a href="http://www.worldpantry.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/nspired/maranatha/health.d2w/report" rel="nofollow">Maranatha Peanut butter</a> website that they are virtually free of aflatoxins. They are another organic peanut butter source! Very interesting information. I will have to research this further. Thanks!

I have never had any issue with peanut butter for myself or my daughter (who has been eating it since age 1) and my midwife informed me that it is perfectly fine. I would be interested to hear where you heard that information. Can you provide sources for your statements?
