Default Re: eating nuts in pregnancy

This is one of those topics where it swings backwards and forwards. From what I know there was the initial knee-jerk reaction where women were told not to eat nuts at all in pregnancy, but then it came back to the 'in moderation, as long as you have no family history of atopic diseases (eczema, asthma, allergies)'. I'd stick to that at the moment and wait for them to tell us different in another 6 months, which I'm sure they will! The bit about the peanut not being a true nut is interesting though...
