EGGS
My baby's dr said we could give him scrambled eggs but to mix with milk instead of water. Did I hear that right? Milk not water. I'm just making sure because I read a lot of things about babies not being able to have cows milk until 1 year old.

Babies shouldnt have cows milk in its own until 1. They can have it mixed into foods though (cooking or baking with milk products) , unless your baby is lactose intolerant.

I think that when it’s cooked it changes the composition of the milk. That said, you also shouldn’t give it to your baby if he/she has a cows milk protein intolerance, which is different than lactose. You could always use almond, rice, coconut or soy milk as a substitute, if you’ve already eliminated those as allergens. Personally, our allergist told us to leave eggs til last, so I haven’t tried it yet.

When I make scrambled eggs i don’t mix them with anything. Just eggs.
But Madeline has yogurt daily so milk isn’t an issue. And it’s not like you are giving your baby a glass of milk. The amount will be very small and cooked.
I would simply just go with whatever your preference of cooking is. Madeline is eating what we are eating, we aren’t adjusting her food at all.

I’ve always made scrambled eggs mixed with milk. That’s how my mom taught me, I thought that was how it’s always done.

Yes, if the cows milk is within food then they are allowed it, not allowed it as a drink on its own until 1.
I'm in the uk but we're told if we're making porridge, scrambled egg, pancakes etc.. to use whole fat milk ☺️

Thanks ladies! I just wanted to be sure because she said milk instead of water. So I wanted to make sure I didn't hear it backwards.

I make Caellum scrambled eggs but I don’t use milk or water. Milk won’t hurt though. Caellum has had cheese and yogurt & he’s fine.

Cooking with cows milk is fine just not as a drink until 1. We do blw so the first thing i made him was an omelette. Using a little bit in cooking isnt very much compared to a cup of milk to drink

I heard of people mixing milk in their eggs to make it more fluffy and stretch. I never preferred it personally and now I don’t even eat eggs anymore.
