Yes he did. My son was 3 when he had it done, so I'm not sure whether it is the same for babies.

They simply make a small scratch on his skin (arm in my sons case) then dab a little of what they may have an allergy to in the scratch, then wait 20 minutes and see what the reaction is. My son was tested for 19 things! So 19 small scratches. He was really good, but dint enjoy it much obviously. But he understood why it had to be done.
