Diet For Young Infant: Is Egg-Yolk Harmful For The Baby?

Assalam Alikum Dr.Khan

mayri younger daughter abhi 4 months kee hoi hay us ko ab cereals aur light food start kara dia hai yahan (canada main ) mayri family doctor ne kaha hay k abhi egg nahi dena hai us ko jab tak 1 year kee nahi ho jati aur 1 year k baad egg white se start kerna hay , main ne reason poocha tu bataya k babies main almost stomach infections egg se hote hain specilly EGG YOLK se main satisfy nahi tu pediatricain  se bhi contact kia us ne bhi ye hee kaha aur mayray saath main jo aur loogon k bacchay hain un sab ne bhi ye hee bataya hay.

poochna ye hay k pakistan main  baccha jab 3 or 4 months ka hota hay tu Drs. first egg yolkhee khilanay ko kehte hain k babies k liye tu yahan ye kion  ya mujhay nahi maloom hay k pakistan main bhi theory change hoi hay k egg yolk  bacchay ko 1 year k baad deni hay plzz mujhay batain aap .

 I live in Canda and the doctor advised not to give egg to my baby who is four months old. He advised to start egg white once he would be of more than a year older. On enquiring the reason not to give egg at this age he told that most of the stomach infections in infants happen due to eggs. We have consulted different other doctors for the same issue but the reply was the same. I want to ask that what practice has been going on in Pakistan. As per my knowledge there in Pakistan the doctors advice to offer egg to the infants. isn't or the theory has been changed.

diet For 4months old baby

We recommand the mothers of young infants to start weaning from 4-6 months of age. And the recommanded food for this age group is:

• continue breast feeding 6-7 times in 24 hrs.
• Thin blended semi-solid food
• Its better to start with home made items
• give 3 meals per day
• give dalia, khitchri, yogurt, mashed potato, banana.
• add oil, fruits and vegetables.

Egg should be added to the diet at the age of 7-9 months and its better to start with the white portion only, b/c the baby needs proteins in this age and egg white is rich in proteins. Egg yolk should be given at 10-11 months of age b/c it contains a substance called Evidin which is not easily digested in young infants and cause diarrhea and other digestive problems.
