possible egg allergies and vaccines?

[chewynotcrunchy]

DD is 5 weeks and I have a mild egg allergy.  I haven't decided about  vaccines yet (still researching) but know that I will delay till at least 6 months.  My concern is the likely hood that DD will have the same allergy?  I have never reacted to a vaccine despite being allergic to eggs, but that is not a chance I want to take with DD.  Any suggestions or personal experiences you could share?

Allergies often run in families, but without getting your DD tested for an egg allergy, there really is no way to tell if she has one or not (assuming once she starts on solids that she doesn't outwardly react to things that contain eggs.

The tendency toward allergies is inherited, not specific allergies themselves.  For example, my dh and I both have allergies to certain pollens, grasses, and dust mites and our ds has an allergy to peanuts.  Our dd showed no signs of allergies (food or otherwise) until she turned 3 years.  Now we suspect she is having a possible problem with dairy.
