A. usually cow milk is avoided before completion of one year of age because before that it can cause cow milk allergy which might lead to either constipation or loose motion or colic pain.s but if you have given cow milk earlier and it did not cause any digestion problem then you can continue to give it to sthe child otherwise stick to the milk which was given since birth.

A. Animal milk cannot be given before the age of 13 months so please do not give it to the child it is going to unnecessarily disturb the immune system of the child so currently have only go head with giving formula feeding to the child nothing else
