I started introducing all the known allergens pretty early (6.5 months). Peanut butter, strawberries, eggs, etc. If you don't have a history of food allergies, I think new guidance is suggesting the earlier the better.
Maybe 7-8 months? I do think we started with just yolks the first time, and then pretty quickly moved on to the whole egg - we are too lazy to mess with separating eggs, and he LOVES them.
We have no history of food allergies in our family. The first time we tried them, we did it at home just in case. No problems.
I waited until maybe 13 or 14 months, way late. But both me and H had egg allergies as babies/children and I was paranoid. Also, when I'd rub an egg on his cheek/around his mouth maybe around 8 or 9 months, it got super red. Doc said to wait then.
It is somewhat unclear to me what my mom fed her this weekend.
In addition to eggs, she might've also had...pizza. LMAO.

About 6-7 months. We don't eat a ton of meat so eggs were introduced early. Hard boiled eggs still remain one of his favorite foods. Also lmao @ pizza! I love it

Maybe your mom secretly hangs out here and wanted to get in on the PIZZA BABY action ;-)
We started at 8 months I believe. She had no issues with them. I just remember at her 9 month appt, the pedi said to wait until 1 year for eggs, and I was like, ughhhhh, we already did them! Oh well!
