A. Milk is very important for babies specially in the initial days of life breast milk is very important and should be given exclusively till 5-6 months of age . formula milk should be given only as a substitute to breast milk if due to any reason it is not sufficient to fulfill the demand of the baby. according to the age different stage of formula milk are there like stage 1 till 6 months of age stage 2 from 6 months to 12 months and thhereafter stage 3 . after one year cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .

A. Then go for full cream packet milk because it is pasteurised it is definitely one of the best options for you to introduce to the child is completely safe to go ahead with so I would recommend you to start giving a tone pasteurised packet milk to the child to begin with and then slowly you can shift to packet or full cream packet milk as wellWrite Your Answer Here
