Can babies have allergies?

I have bad fall allergies as does my DS. We didn't discover it in my son until late, after his first birthday. Is there a way to find out if DD (4 months) also has allergies? Can babies take allergy medicine? TIA!!

Re: Can babies have allergies?

I believe they say babies don't get allergies that early. Usually the runny nose and other symptoms like that usually is bc of teething.

ETA - my 4yr old starting showing bad allergies at around 2 and now on strong allergy meds.

They say no, but DD had them around 7.5 mo. She was miserable, runny nose, watery eyes. I have her benedryl for 2 days and it went away. It was very windy that weekend so it must have been pollen.
