How many eggs do your babies eat?

My 14 mo girl loves eggs. Eggs are the only breakfast she likes, every single day. She likes omelettes (no salt) with probiotic cream cheese. Is that bad? How many eggs do your toddlers eat?

That's a really good breakfast. My son eats eggs a few times a week and loves them too.

Eggs are great for protein. Actually I'd ask a pediatrician or a pediatric nutritionist, iodized salt in small amounts may also be beneficial to children, I know it's good for adults, but I don't know about kids

I cook up eggs the night before. Scramble 2 , split into three sections, one for each of us

He does also do sausage.... And I've done PB toast for him with breakfast or as a snack for his weekly PB exposure

@Saranda is there a limit to how many a baby can eat in a day? She eats 1 whole egg + 1 egg white. Is that a lot?

That’s not bad!

My daughter likes eggs, but I only get around to making them once or twice a week. 😅

My son eats 2 scrambled eggs when he’s home for breakfast. I personally don’t want to feed my son more than that bc I feel like 3 is even too much for myself. But I would ask your pediatrician to know for sure.

No limit. My son loves eggs to and has some almost every morning

Thanks guys. I'll stick to one egg a day I guess. Eggs also help include veggies in her meals. This week I am doing green onion and mushroom omelettes. Hopefully she doesn't reject it 🥲

My boy could easily eat 3 eggs every morning, but I like to mix it up anyway! But there is no limit. Especially if pastured raised and organic. Eggs are nature's multivitamin!!!

I make breakfast the night before. What I do is I take two eggs, a few handfuls of cheese, crack some pepper, a little milk or a splash of water , scramble it up to mix it, scramble it in the skillet, then divide the cooked eggs into three sections ( me, hubby and baby)

That way everyone gets eggs for breakfast, and that way he's not fussy as I'm trying to make the food and he has nothing in front of him , so I can focus more on feeding him .... And then getting more food for him once he's eaten what he will of his eggs

@Anneliese Elena as a farmer I have my own thoughts on organic vs non certified organic. But pasture raised is better than free range

Organic is a USDA certification, which is why organic eggs cost more, to make return on the investment of getting that organic certification

Pasture raised is essentially the closest to keeping the animals in wild like environments. Ideally anything you raise on a pasture has three sections of pasture to rotate between. Even for chickens that's good so it gives the ground a break ( chickens that congregate all around one are, it's obvious that they were never rotated in any way)
