A member asked:
Is it true that egg and banana shouldnt given to baby until 1 year,no family history of allergy,why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Banana can be given after 6 months of age and egg can be given at 9 months of age. There are no scientific studies that delaying either of these any longer leads to less allergies.
