Not at all, you're just using a different set of guidelines to their nutritionists. There isn't something miraculous that happens on their first birthday that suddenly allows them to deal with these foods better, and all babies are different -it's a pretty arbitrary dividing line and not everyone agrees that all these foods should be held back so long. babies are pretty hardy, don't stress too much.

Regarding the ear infections, my advice is to keep your house filthy. The natural immunity approach to ear infections

(seriously, my three have had one between them in their entire lives )

Good luck at the ENT.
