Introducing meat, eggs and nuts

I’ve just started weaning baby. How long do you think it’s wise to give just veg before offering meat, eggs and nuts? Obvs do all singularly to start.

@Jayde I may just be being cautious doing veg first week. Good to know. Thanks

I honestly just wanted to get wheat, egg and dairy out of the way in the first week because those are the main allergens we eat and from next week we will do more meals instead of just singular foods

@Jayde did you season the chicken with anything?

I’m on day 12 as of today. I’ve given FF cows milk / natural yog / Greek yog / toast and weetabjx in this time. Need to do egg and nut. Won’t be giving meat.

@Josephine No but it was in a cheesy sauce along with the pasta

I did just veg until day 20 as there are so many options and did egg then!

Best to introduce these early as they can be allergens and babies can get used to it. Make sure they're cooked /pureed though and give one at a time note down reactions and when you gave them. If there is a minor reaction stop and give after a week again if reaction occurs again stop and contact GP for referral to allergy testing. This is the usual pathway here in the NHS. Goodluck

@Samina yeah I was thinking to do that enough time apart to be able to nail down if any allergies etc.
