A member asked:
When can my child be allowed to eat soft boiled egg without risk of bacteria poisoning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soft boiled egg: He can start eating a soft boiled egg between 6-8 months. The one precaution would be to separate the yolk from the white . Try the yolk first and if tolerated give the whole egg in 2-4 weeks later.
