What age? Scrambled eggs, cheese, Macaroni and cheese, etc.

DD seems to LOVE to chew things. I've only given her a few things like puffs, pasta, and the soft part of bread other than Stage 2 foods and cereal. She loves all of this but I would like to give her more.

From what I listed in the title, when can you give these to them? DD is almost 7.5 months old.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

I gave scrambled eggs and cheese (i would pull string cheese apart, so it was thinner than the pinky) at around that age.

I would forgo mac n cheese for pastina or just elbows.

We started to give DS all of those things when he was 9-10MO. Other than that it was just purees and the occasional puff! But by 10M he would only eat what we were eating. Our ped was delighted!

I just wasn't sure if she could have some of those things since they have dairy in them and they're not suppose to have milk until 12 months. Or am I wrong?

Can I ask why you wouldn't give Mac n' Cheese? I'm only asking because my 2 boys love it and have it a lot and she's always eyeballing them eating it!

I think eggs are supposed to be a 9+ month? I gave DS#2 steak and it was from our steak and eggs at around 7 months, so we found out that he wasn't allergic then.


I would hold off on mac n cheese, b/c it's not really the healthiest thing out there. No need to get her hooked on that until necessary. JMHO
