I have tried searching on the net for an answer to this one, and although the foods standards agency says 6 months, a lot of other sites say either one or two years!

Yesterday Emily stole a tiger prawn off my plate, then ate the whole thing with so much gusto, she must really have enjoyed it! We have no history of allergies in our family, and I'm assuming she'd have had a reaction by now, so is it ok to offer them to her again?
 
I wanted to know this too but something tells me its best to wait til they're 1? Although im unsure x
 
I have heard mixed advice, some people say that you should wait until 1 but Thomas has already had prawns several times
 
A year definitely. Very easy for bits of dirt / bacteria to get trapped in shellfish and cause really nasty food poisoining.
