POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. Yes, giving one full egg daily is generally safe and healthy for babies above 9 months as long as there are no allergies. Eggs are rich in protein, healthy fats, choline, iron, and essential vitamins that support brain development and growth.
🔹 Benefits of Giving Eggs Daily
✅ High in Protein – Helps muscle and brain development.
✅ Good Fats – Supports overall growth.
✅ Iron & Choline – Essential for brain and nerve function.
✅ Vitamin D & B12 – Strengthens bones and immunity.
🔹 How to Introduce Eggs?
1️⃣ Start with egg yolk (6-8 months) as it is easier to digest.
2️⃣ Introduce whole egg (both yolk & white) after 9 months if no allergies are observed.
3️⃣ Always cook the egg well (scrambled, boiled, omelet) to avoid salmonella infection.
🔹 Possible Concerns
🚨 Some babies may have egg allergies (rash, vomiting, swelling). If you notice any reaction, stop immediately and consult a doctor.
🚨 Avoid adding too much salt, sugar, or butter while preparing eggs for babies.
🔹 Best Ways to Serve Eggs for Babies
🥚 Boiled egg (mashed for younger babies)
🥚 Scrambled egg with little ghee
🥚 Egg dosa/pancake
🥚 Egg mixed with dal or rice
🥚 Egg in vegetable puree
🔹 Can I Give More Than One Egg Daily?
✔ One egg per day is sufficient for most babies.
✔ If your baby is underweight or very active, you can give 1.5 eggs but balance it with other protein sources like paneer, dal, or fish.
Let me know if your baby has any digestion issues after eating eggs!
