When can a baby have eggs?

Question

I've seen and heard mixed opinions about it. Does anyone know the true answer?

Answer

Anytime after 6 months! The earlier they are introduced the less likely they are to have an allergy. Also don't just give the yolk you have to do the whites too because that is what most people are allergic to.

Answer

The new rule is to introduce allergy causing foods sooner than later

Answer

I offered scrambled eggs between 8 and 10 months with all my kiddos....they took to them at all different ages though

Answer

Any time after 6 months. Just make sure they are fully cooked (i.e. no soft boiled or sunny side up eggs)

Answer

Egg yolk was our babies first food recommended by our pediatrician. I don't think there's one absolute right age though
