#AskTheExpert My son is 6 months old. he was taking formula milk and breastmilk from the day he is born. Now I have started giving him cow milk from last 3 days..Since yesterday he is crying and is very irritated not being taking up the milk. Only taking breastmilk. As my breastmilk supply is also low so i need to give him other milk also but he is not taking milk. What should I do.

A. Stop giving cow milk to the baby as it is difficult to digest for the baby and switch to formula milk like before abd cow milk can be introduced once baby completes one year abd give him colicaid drops

A. You should give your baby only breast milk or iron-fortified formula during the first 12 months of life, not cow's milk.
