Might explain the rise in allergies in the last 40 years, But then they did blame this on being too clean too

Oh great my daughter has allergies. Another thing I can blame myself for! I'll blame her father for the eczema though.

I wouldnt worry about it too much. I think the one thing you can be sure of is. That nobody is really sure

This was particularly the case in families where the parents had allergies, and this association was stronger in boys.

Wouldn't the rate be higher in this group regardless?

I would have to agree, Also more women are using “the Pill” . Which would increase the chances of women on “the pill” having a child with allergies. Simple numbers really.
