A. first of all it is advisable not to give any type of complementary feeding before completion of 6 months of age because it can lead to digestion problem in the child and it is advisable to go for them only after 6 months completion

A. Hi dear no its not safe. Any animal milk should be given only after a year. Animal milk is not good for your baby’s tummy. It contains a high sodium content and very low iron content.Further, the proteins present in it aren’t easily digestible. After six months Intilaly simple purees like carrot, potato, banana and simple waters like rice or dal water can be given. These are easy digesting foods for baby. Then second week you can continue with other purees or combination of two fruits veggies, the third week you can give instant homemade rice cereal. Slowly you can add a veggie or fruit to the rice cereal this would give a different taste. One meal a day is enough for six month old baby. With few spoons of water
