Hello Mama, Introduce Egg Yolk after completion of 8 months. If there is no reaction and baby accepts the egg without any allergies, then after a month egg white and whole egg can be given. --------------- How many eggs can be given in a day to babies? - When you start introducing eggs, first start with one teaspoon of hard boiled yellow yolk, after that can be slowly increased to One full egg per day. ----------------------- Words of Caution - Please make sure that the eggs are cooked fully, never give half cooked eggs to babies as they may have salmonella and may cause food poisoning. ---------------------- If your baby develops allergy to eggs then, the following symptoms are likely to be seen: Vomiting, Diarrhea, Cranky and crying – due to tummy ache, Rashes, Hives, Runny Nose or Sore throat, Difficulty in Breathing... Rush to your doctor or emergency immediately if you notice any of these.
