In the past, the traditional method thought that giving the baby egg yolk was to cook the egg, take out the egg yolk, dilute the egg yolk with water and give it to the baby.
When Erbao was 6 months old, I used this method, but the result was that Erbao choked, and after eating a little, he would vomit, which was very uncomfortable.
I just found out that this way of eating egg yolk is not suitable for children. So I stopped adding egg yolk to Erbao until seven or eight months ago, but the method was adjusted and Erbao was more acceptable. Steamed egg yolk

These simple ways to eat egg yolk are all suitable for babies, so you can try to cook it for your baby.
The nutritional value of eggs is very rich, which can meet the nutritional needs of the baby's physical development. However, for the baby who just started to add complementary food at the age of 6 months, eating eggs is still very particular.
1. For the first time, the baby can only add egg complementary food from the yolk.
2. Pay attention to the amount of egg yolk added: you can add 1/4 egg yolk at first. If you are worried about allergies, you can start with the amount of 1/6 egg yolk, and then gradually transition to the amount of 1/4 egg yolk after observing that the child has no allergies.
3. Don't feed the baby with egg yolk directly. The easiest way is to mix a proper amount of egg yolk with a small amount of warm water and stir it evenly to form a thin paste.
4. After the boiled egg is cooked, immediately separate the yolk from the egg white while it is hot.
If the egg white and yolk are not separated immediately, it is likely that the "ovomucin-like protein" in the egg white will enter the yolk, which may easily cause baby allergies.
5. Don't add egg yolk to formula milk powder for your baby.
When they are eaten together, it is not conducive to the baby's absorption of iron in egg yolk, and it will also destroy the scientific proportion of various nutrients in formula milk powder.
In short, when adding egg yolk to a 6-month-old baby for the first time, the simplest and most nutritious complementary food method is to mix the egg yolk with warm water and stir it into yolk paste for the baby to eat. The amount of added egg yolk should be gradually increased from less to more, and it is necessary to observe whether the baby has allergic reactions after eating egg yolk.
I hope my answer will help you.
Congratulations, your baby is six months old, so you can add complementary food appropriately. The tongue-sticking reaction in the first few months will make your tongue automatically push out when you feel foreign objects.
At the age of 4-6 months, the tongue-sticking reaction is weakened. The baby who has just added complementary food can't eat solid food yet. If he only eats egg yolk, the baby will choke.
First, you can use 1/4 of the yolk of boiled eggs, crush it and mix it with breast milk, make it watery, and feed it to the baby with a spoon to see how it reacts. If the baby likes to eat it, feed it a little, and slowly eat it with rice soup (without rice grains) mixed with the yolk.
remember: when you add complementary food to your baby, you must add it one by one, so that you can know which food is easy to cause discomfort or allergies to your baby.
Don't think that it's easy to feed the baby, especially the breast-fed baby, who is not used to eating other things. Bao Ma should not be afraid of trouble or dirt. At this time, the baby has an appetite and learns to imitate adults. Mom can pretend to take a bite, and then tell the baby what this food is and how delicious it is with a boastful expression. The baby will follow a little bit.
Bao Ma should make it clear that the purpose of adding complementary food is to let the baby try different flavors, instead of feeding the baby. You can feed it more than an hour after the baby is bored or breast-fed. Adding complementary food must be from less to more, from single to diverse. At first, it may be as big as a nail, and the amount is getting bigger and bigger, and the types are getting more and more.
If your baby doesn't like egg yolk, you can try different foods.
I wish all the babies good health, eat well and sleep well. When the baby is six months old, parents begin to consider adding complementary food to them. As a recognized food with high nutrition, eggs are naturally the first choice. Many parents know that it is best to give the baby egg yolk at the age of six months, and then eat egg white when it is older. This is correct, so how to eat egg yolk for a six-month-old baby? How to eat egg yolk for a six-month-old baby < P > As a supplementary food added by the baby for the first time, the egg yolk itself is not easy to digest, and eating it will not have a great burden on the baby's stomach; Egg yolk is also rich in lecithin, which is an essential substance for the development of baby's nervous system; In addition, egg yolk is also rich in protein and lipids, which are necessary nutrients for baby's growth and development.
As for eating, there are two main ways:
The first way is to cook the egg yolk, then mix it with other things (water, milk, juice, etc.) to make a paste, and feed it to the baby bit by bit with a small spoon. Iron in egg yolk is more easily absorbed when it is with vitamin C. In addition, this way can also train the baby to chew, stir the tongue and practice swallowing, which is very helpful for eating and talking by himself in the future.
the second is steamed egg yolk soup. This method is very simple, as long as you master the ratio of egg yolk to milk or water. Moreover, it is more moist and easier to swallow when eating. Sometimes babies will choke when eating egg yolk paste, but this phenomenon rarely occurs when eating egg yolk soup. The six-month-old baby is adding complementary food for the first time, so more attention should be paid to the fineness. No matter what complementary food is, it needs to be added the same. After confirming that there is nothing wrong with the baby eating it, slowly add the second one. And if the baby doesn't like it in this way, you can add it in another way. In short, it is based on the principle that the baby likes it. Baby is not suitable for eating egg yolk for 6 months, so it should be postponed until the baby is 8 ~ 9 months old!
One of the main reasons why the baby takes complementary food at 4 ~ 6 months is that the iron brought by the baby from the mother is not enough and has been diluted, that is, the baby is short of iron and needs to be supplemented with iron.
Before the appearance of fortified iron rice flour, it was a routine practice to give babies egg yolk to supplement iron, and it was also recommended by the child care doctor, because egg yolk contains a lot of iron.
But then fortified iron rice noodles appeared, and pediatricians recommended that everyone give the baby high-iron rice noodles. The reason is that although the content of iron in egg yolk is high, it belongs to non-heme iron, so the baby's absorption rate is too low, only about 3%.
The daily demand for iron is 7mg for babies aged 7-12 months, 9mg for babies aged 1-3 years, and the iron content of egg yolk is about 7mg per 1 grams of egg yolk.
an egg weighs about 5 grams, and the yolk accounts for about 32%, that is, about 16 grams, so the iron content of an egg yolk is about 1.16 mg, multiplied by the absorption rate of 3%, which means that an egg can only provide .336mg of iron for the baby.
what is this concept?
It means that the baby needs to eat 2 egg yolks every day to supplement 7mg of iron. Isn't this a joke? Even normal adults can't eat it, not to mention the high cholesterol in egg yolk, which is unrealistic at all! In addition, the reason why it is not recommended for a 6-month-old baby to eat egg yolk is to prevent the baby from being allergic to egg yolk.
because the baby's gastrointestinal function was still weak when he first added complementary food at 6 months. The main symptoms of baby's allergy to egg yolk are eczema, urticaria, or vascular edema and congestion of baby's skin, all of which are due to allergic reaction of immune system.
even if you want to give your baby egg yolk, it is recommended to postpone it until the baby is 8 ~ 9 months old. If you add egg white, it is recommended to postpone feeding until the baby is 1 ~ 12 months, which is safer, because egg white is more likely to cause baby allergies. What complementary foods does the baby mainly eat for 6 months?
1, fortified iron rice noodles, eat first. Because after the rice flour is blended into rice paste, it is easy for the baby to digest and absorb.
2. In addition to introducing iron rice flour, you can also add meat paste, liver paste and animal blood products to your baby. These foods also contain a lot of iron.
3. Then you can add fruit puree, vegetable puree, porridge, rotten noodles, etc. to the baby, mainly to supplement vitamins and dietary fiber.
Egg yolk is a supplementary food added after rice flour and vegetable puree. If a 6-month-old baby wants to eat egg yolk, cook it, crush it into mud, and put some warm water to feed it.
When adding egg yolk for the first time, the amount is just the size of the thumb belly. Observe whether the baby has allergic phenomena such as rash, vomiting and diarrhea after eating.
Make sure you are not allergic, and then gradually increase it. Eat the whole egg yolk for one quarter, one third and one half, and don't exceed the amount of one egg a day. Excessive intake will easily lead to indigestion.
If the baby has indigestion in the process of adding egg yolk, stop adding it, or maintain the amount acceptable to the baby, and then resume adding it or gradually increase it when the baby's stool is normal. Don't be too hasty.
When you are older, there will be more ways to make egg yolk. You can add rice flour, vegetable paste and meat paste to feed it, or steam raw egg yolk with chopped vegetables to make custard.
It is important to pay attention not to give the baby delicious eggs because the yolk is too dry. This will not kill the bacteria in the eggs, which is very unsafe for infants. In addition, it is safe to eat egg yolk before one year old and egg white after one year old.
Most of the nutrition of eggs is in the yolk, and the yolk is rich in iron, which is also the first choice to take the yolk as a supplementary food for babies in the original feeding concept.
However, with the continuous updating of feeding concept, there are more choices when choosing food for the baby, and the research also shows that the iron in the egg yolk is not easy for the baby to absorb, so it is not recommended to add the egg yolk at the initial stage of complementary food. You can choose rice flour rich in iron first, and then add it with the egg yolk slowly. We added egg yolk in complementary food for about a month.
how to add egg yolk? 1. Egg yolk paste+rice flour
Peel off the yolk from the cooked eggs, and take 1/4 and mix it into the prepared rice flour. Because the yolk is very dry and easy to choke, it must be stirred with liquid at the beginning before feeding it to the baby. In addition, start from 1/4, observe the baby's adaptation, whether there is allergic reaction, etc. If not, add it step by step. There are quite a few babies who are allergic to egg yolk. If you find it, stop adding it first and try again after a while.
2. Steamed egg soup
Separate the egg yolk from the egg white, add 1.5 times of warm water to the egg yolk, stir evenly, and steam for about 12 minutes. You can also drop a few drops of oil into it, or add some mashed vegetables and steam them for your baby to eat, so as to enrich the taste.
When the baby is older, the egg yolk can be made into more delicious food. At a young age, it's basically mud paste. Don't worry, take your time. I am a twin treasure mom who has been wandering around the parenting circle for 1 years and finally managed to exert her own fists and feet. I am a complementary food expert in the circle of friends. I love life and sharing. I look forward to walking with you and learning and growing together on the road of parenting. Remember to help me like it. Oh, ha, thank you!
Let me share three ways of egg yolk complementary food, so that the baby can fall in love with egg yolk from the heart. Before that, let's understand the nutritional value of egg yolk and what to pay attention to.
Egg yolk is much more protein than protein, and contains many essential amino acids, vitamin B family for promoting energy metabolism and anti-fatigue, vitamin A for promoting metabolism, vitamin D for improving immunity and various minerals such as iron, potassium and calcium.
Egg yolk also contains a substance called choline, which can improve the vitality of the brain and enhance memory.
Egg yolk contains a lot of phospholipids, which can be an essential and important substance in brain, cell membrane and nerve tissue, and can improve intelligence and brain. Soybean and pig liver also contain a lot of phospholipids, but the yolk is much higher than them, which is three times that of soybean!
generally speaking, egg yolk is recommended to be added from the second month when complementary food is added. For example, if complementary food is added in five months (six months), it can be eaten in six months (seven months). However, we should pay attention to the amount of egg yolk, and give 1/4 in the first month, 1/2 in the second month and all yellow in the third month.
Because the yolk is pink, it is easy to choke the baby, so it is not recommended to steam it directly. Ok, let me share three ways to supplement food with egg yolk. Steamed eggs with spinach (6 months)
Ingredients: two spinach leaves, half yolk, and appropriate amount of lean broth (or prepared milk powder).
practice: beat the spinach into juice with a cooking machine, take out the yolk, pour in a proper amount of lean broth, mix and stir evenly, try not to bubble as much as possible, and steam in a steamer for about 15 minutes. Egg yolk cod soup (mid-supplementary food)
ingredients: half an egg yolk, one piece of tofu, 8g of cod, 5g of Komatsu
three tablespoons of soup, one drop of soy sauce and a little starch.
Practice:
1. Cut the cod into pieces, and cut the cabbage into pieces.
2. After the bean curd is heated in the microwave oven, it is cut into 5mm sizes and put into a supplementary food bowl.
3. Mix and stir Komatsu, soup, cod and soy sauce evenly, then cook until it rolls, and add a little starch.
