Question

Can a five-month-old baby eat steamed eggs? How should they be cooked when feeding, and do they need salt added? As a new parent, I’m not very familiar with this. Could experienced friends provide some suggestions?

Answer

According to your description, your baby is five months old, and it is not recommended to feed them egg yolks at this stage. Currently, it is advocated to breastfeed exclusively until the baby is six months old, after which complementary foods can be introduced, starting with congee. Consider introducing eggs after the baby turns one year old. Regarding the question of “Can a five-month-old baby eat steamed eggs?” our answer is here.
