Hey everyone. I am in my soft foods stage and the 3 times I've gotten very sick and thrown up all were with eggs. I tried egg whites, scrambled and hard boiled... all were a no go. Was anyone else not able to eat eggs, especially early on?

I'm 8 wks out and eggs have been great for me. I scramble them w/ a slice of American cheese. I can't eat it all but very good. Maybe give that a try

I had days that eggs would work and days that they didn't. Even now at almost 18 months out some days eggs are great and other days yucky. However, I have found that to be true with most foods some days great and others no way at least for me.

There are alot of people who cant handle them. I did scrambled for the first 2 weeks of soft food but now i cant stand them. Make sure your not using any butter or oil. Sometimes that is what causes it to make you sick. Or try egg salad instead of just hard boiled. I make mine with a little bit of mustard and a little bit of light mayo.

I have struggled with eggs. Sometimes ok, sometimes not. They very frequently do not sit well, so I have neen avoiding them.
I did find a small amount of egg salad with pickle relish sat ok once or twice, but otherwise I choose something else.I will try again in a month or so.

I am begging to be able to handle them more often now.  It was a hit/miss for the first three months.  Now, more often than not they seem to agree with me now.  However, another item or two will create additional problems so there always seems to be something that I can't tolerate at the moment.  Hang in there and keep coming back to them.  Eventually you'll be able to eat them.  Sometimes I'll eat, feel the push, stop and wait a few minutes and try again.  Sometimes that works real well.  Another bit of advice someone told me that really works sometimes, is we can really produce acid in our stomachs like we used to.  A little orange juice will help break down whatever is in our stomachs.  I have only done this once or twice, but I felt so much better afterwards.  I am trying not to make this habit though, since there is so much sugar in orange juice.

Good Luck!

I couldn't handle them for months. Even at 6 and 12 months out, eggs could feel more dense than steak!

Eggs can be difficult. I still don't eat scrambled eggs much because I usually don't feel well after.



I can do a boiled egg (1) and putting them in tuna or chicken  salad works also.

I was told to not scramble them but to poach them and that worked. I actually poach them until the yolk is not so runny as I don't like them gooy.
