No: For some allergy can start later in life but I am not aware that pregnancy is a risk for this to happen.

Developing allergies: Developing an atopic disorder like pollen allergy would suggest that you had a genetic predisposition for becoming allergic, but the allergic genes are dormant at first the onset of allergic symptoms may occur with hormonal change, as occurs during adolescence or associated with pregnancy. There is no way to predict the future course of your allergy. It may change again with a future pregnancy.
