Can I give my almost 10 month old fish? ETA: I called the Ped
I made some Tilapia last night with lemon on the grill and it was just so good I was wondering if I could give it to DD. Is that a no no at almost 10 months?
ETA: So I called my Ped to ask- and the Dr said no seafood of any kinda until age 2!

I gave Nikolas fish around that age and unlike his Mommy (I hate fish) he loved it!

Re: Can I give my almost 10 month old fish?
You sure can! Yum!!
I wouldn't give shell fish at that age for fear of a severe allergic reaction.
ETA: I just saw your update. Strange, my ped said at 9 months DD could have white, flaky fish (tilapia & flounder). If I were you, I'd still let her have some. I tend to buck the trend often though .

Re: Can I give my almost 10 month old fish? ETA: I called the Ped
my ped. said no fish at all until 12 months but I'm betting that might be because of his tendancy towards allergies. He doesn't even want me to do eff yolks get either.

Re: Can I give my almost 10 month old fish?
DD is 9.5 months, I asked my ped about fish this week and they said not until 12 months. I see 10 months is quite a few other places so I think it's ok and I think I'll be starting fish before 12 months too.
My only concern would be the lemon, I see in many places no citrus until 12 months.

I think fish might be ok as long as your careful to make sure it is low in mercury and iodine.

Seafood as in shellfish I know that, but talapia, salmon, white fish....she told me that's ok. I've also read that's OK. I guess each one is different.

Until age 2?
I guess it depends on your comfort level. I have not given Steven shell fish, but I have given him Salmon, Tilapia, Cat fish and Striped Bass. He has loved it all and no reactions. Oh and Tuna...canned and tuna steak.
Personally, I would give it. But, it's all about your comfort level

The nurse said it wouldn't be the worst thing that happened, but she said not to give it to her. I even said it was Tilapia- thinking it was safe!

 Really? My ped told me this past month (11 months) that I could start giving DD tuna, flounder etc - NO shellfish.
