When to introduce legumes to veg. baby w/fam. history of allergies?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My sister has a severe peanut allergy and has always been told to avoid all nuts and all legumes including all beans.

I want to raise my baby as a vegetarian (she's now 13 months & eating lots of solids but still nursing), but I'm not sure when I can start introducing legumes given this family history (I have no problem eating nuts/beans, and my husband has no food allergies either). I've heard to hold off on peanuts until age 3, but what about other legumes (lentils, green beans, etc.?)

Thanks in advance for your help!
