None of those before 1 year. Everything else he says is fair game! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440559 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:48:53 +0000 septca 1440559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were on vacation around 7 months when I started giving DD pieces of my omelets (filled with all kinds of stuff, including cheese). She loved it. Interestingly, she goes back and forth on eggs and cheese, but will eat cheese if I sprinkle it on beans or veggies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440549 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:46:04 +0000 Smurfette 1440549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: You can always start with shredded cheese! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440541 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:44:02 +0000 looch 1440541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only did egg yolk, because that's what my mom recommended. I cooked some baby pastina really well and then mashed in about half of a cooked egg yolk. Eventually, I just used whole egg and then I did scrambled a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440529 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:41:35 +0000 coopsmama 1440529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: @cmomma17: @Dandelion: Awesome! I hate the idea of just using the yolk so I'll just be brave and go for it! We're in the middle of finding a new ped (not a fun search -- our area is notorious for old school, horrible peds) so I don't have anyone to answer these questions! </p> <p>@cmomma17: I LOVE that. Too cute. If I tried that for my DH he would be severely unimpressed so I love that I have a LO I can do adorable cheesy things for. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440522 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:40:06 +0000 mrsjyw 1440522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>six months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440511 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:38:17 +0000 lovehoneybee 1440511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: Whole egg. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440507 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:36:54 +0000 NurseMommy 1440507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months! Started with scrambled eggs and cheese shreds, then progressed to cheese cut into matchsticks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440505 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:36:08 +0000 Dandelion 1440505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I did the whole thing. The white is the good protein. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440498 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:34:24 +0000 littlebug 1440498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>D's first food was egg yolk at 5.5 months. I mashed it up with some breastmilk. Cheese was probably 6.5 months. And I scrambled a whole egg around 10.5 months.</p> <p>@cmomma17: Umm, heart-shaped omelets...adorable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440489 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:32:17 +0000 cmomma17 1440489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: we always used the whole egg by the way, not just yolks. Ped said it was okay. LO loves eggs. I keep meaning to do omelettes with veggies for him! On valentine's day I made an omelette and then cut heart shapes out with a mini cookie cutter :silly: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440488 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:32:07 +0000 regberadaisy 1440488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember but cheese not till like 13 months plus because of MSPI and eggs not till much later because my nephews is pretty severely allergic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440482 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:30:34 +0000 Smurfette 1440482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think she was 8 or 9 months when we tried egg for the first time. She isn't a fan. I scrambled a whole egg.<br /> Cheese was probably 9 months. I just cut in little pieces. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440471 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:28:26 +0000 coopsmama 1440471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: oooh the omelet idea is fun -- I could probably do eggs and cheese in combination. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440466 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:27:29 +0000 coopsmama 1440466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: @lovehoneybee: Did you scramble the whole egg or just give the yolks? I'm going to give DS his first try at eggs tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440464 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:26:37 +0000 cmomma17 1440464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cheese at 7/8 months? Just gave him bits of my string cheese at first! Now he gets slices of full fat sharp cheddar and I break it into little chunks.<br /> Eggs we just started at 9/10 months. Scrambled and more as an omelette. Sometimes with cheese added. Doctor said we could have started eggs much earlier. Good protein! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440443 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:22:18 +0000 lovehoneybee 1440443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6.5 months (one of his first foods) and scrambled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440441 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:22:16 +0000 Dandelion 1440441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS ate scrambled eggs around 7-8 months. I probably gave him cheese around the same time, but I can't remember how I prepared it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-lo-when-you-started-feeding-cheese-and-eggs#post-1440430 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:17:50 +0000 coopsmama 1440430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And how did you prepare them? :) </p>
