Allergenic foods
Allergenic foods: For all infants, including those at high risk for allergies, allergenic foods (especially eggs and age-appropriate forms of peanut products (NIH)) can be introduced with other solids around 6 months, but not before 4 months, as guided by the infant’s signs of readiness. Once allergenic solids are introduced, they should be fed at least once a week or a few times a month to maintain tolerance.
