A member asked:
Is my daughter likely to have dangerous food allergies if her dad does?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: Someone can inherit the tendency toward allergic responses but not the specific allergies.There is also the contribution of her mother that may dilute the effect. I would monitor her response to things as you introduce them but not be a prisoner to the idea.

Hi I had a question is it true that a male's sibling can determine the sex of his baby? I heard that if a guy has many brothers or many sisters he would be most likely to have a son or daughter. I heard you have to share a father with the siblings though
