Mother-of-two Binky, 32, who rose to fame on the Channel 4 show, told her fans that Wolfie, one, had suffered an allergic reaction.
She shared a photo of her smiling in a hospital bed as her young son lay sleeping in a hospital bed, with nursing staff attending to him.
A second photo showed Wolfie looking red and swollen - with his right eye half closed - as a result of the reaction to sesame.
Binky followed up with two further snaps from the hospital, showing her husband Max Darton cuddling their son, as well as Wolfie in bed.

"Blimey, looking forward to a new week," Binky wrote. "What with Pedro being hit by a van, now Wolfie being rushed off in an ambulance to a bad reaction to what we think is sesame.
"All very quickly he started to get incredibly uncomfortable and was continuously rubbing his face and getting upset.
"He went bright red all over his face & hands and white little spots appeared shortly before his eye, lips & tongue started to swell.
"We left the restaurant immediately & drove to the nearest pharmacist who said to call 999, which we did."

She praised paramedics for arriving "in four minutes" - with staff giving him a "small adrenaline shot" for "anaphylaxis shock".
"They were worried about him becoming unable to breath so put the sirens on, drove pretty bloody quickly and we had our first experience in an ambulance!" Binky continued.
"Wolfies face started calming down again luckily & he was loving the noises & all the exciting things dangling off inside of the ambulance.
"He also got a bear to keep for being so brave."
She concluded by revealing he had been discharged from hospital, with a plan to get Wolfie tested for allergies.
"The NHS and all the team have been nothing short of amazing," she wrote. "We are unbelievably grateful for everything you did today."
