Eggcellent

We had scrambled eggs on toast for brekkie this morning and Mae was coveting it so much (she had a Weetbix. This works OK if you soak it in just enough milk so she can pick it up but I have to say, she doesn't love it) so we thought we'd let her try a bit of our egg on toast.

I know lots of books and info says you should wait till 12 months to give eggs to babies because of allergies, but the baby-led weaning book says it's OK from 6 months as long as the egg is well cooked. Which it was. So we decided to give it a go - if she was allergic we'd soon find out! And let me tell you, she loved it. And she swallowed it and had some more. And is definitely not allergic. This is great, it means eggs can be added to our repertoire! Great source of protein, iron and calories for little ones. And cheap and easy for mum. Hurray!
