Introducing eggs to your baby’s diet is a significant milestone that comes with a plethora of benefits. Rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals, eggs are a nutritional powerhouse that can aid in your baby’s growth and development. As you embark on this new dietary journey, it is recommended to start around the age of 6 months, initially offering small quantities of well-cooked eggs to monitor any allergic reactions. Given that eggs are a common allergen, it is prudent to be cautious and observe your baby’s response. Incorporating eggs in your baby’s diet not only provides essential nutrients but also introduces them to a versatile ingredient that can be enjoyed in various culinary preparations, fostering an early appreciation for diverse flavors and textures.
