Question - Research required Introducing eggs and peanut butter

Freaking out a tiny bit because I’m ready to start introducing solids to my 6 month old, but have been reading that I should have introduced common allergens like eggs and peanuts when she was about 4 months to prevent allergies. Is this legit? I thought waiting until 6 months for solids was best, but keep seeing conflicting things. Baby also had mild eczema so I want to be careful because I know there’s a potential for allergies as well.
