You can give eggs to your 1 yr old child. Start with yolk then white to observe for allergy. Even chicken, fish can be given started. Shell fish need to be started gradually.
Consult me on Practo online consultation for further details.

Hi
When a child turns 1 year you can start with the egg... start with the very small portion size and start one thing at once and see if any allergy reaction is there or not.
Give one food for 3 days and see 3 to 4 days and see if any allergy reaction not there and then start the other new food.

You can start with giving 1/2 egg and see how the baby digests it first, if the baby tolerates the food well, you can give 1 egg then gradually and then slowly and steadily introduce chicken and fish accordingly and give in less quantitys to check the toleration.
