er... my 18 month old has been eating 2 eggs (scrambled) since he was about 8 months old... and I'm pretty sure he'd eat at least another 1 if he could! Why on earth should 2 full eggs be not ok?! They're highly nutritious! HK, Can I say how much I absolutely love your comments? I would do cartwheels of happiness if i could get my monsters to eat 2 eggs a day....they are so super nutrtious and young children need the vitamins and fats and omega 3's for growth and brain development ... btw, is your LO sensitive to egg yolks? because if he is not, you should so give him the yolks...they are the most important ( and tasty) part... edited by designbabe on 23/01/2011 Neither of my two are allergic to anything. DD currently will only eat egg-yolks [sigh'> so DS often gets a couple of extra whites!

I would say that's ok, if it's only the whites, there's no carbs or fat there, if it was two full eggs I'd say no, but if he's enjoying them why not!
