A. Avoid giving cow's milk to your baby before he turns one year old. Cow's milk has less iron content when compared to breast milk and formula milk. This can cause iron deficiency anemia if introduced at this age. Continue giving formula milk if breast milk production is low. Once the baby completes 6 months, you can start giving solids and semi solids like rice Ka Pani, Dal Ka Pani, rice porridge with mashed carrot, any one fruit puree or stewed apple or stewed pear or any one vegetable puree.
