Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. 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 thereafter stage 3 .
after ovne year cows milk should be started and any kind of heablth drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .

Jasmine Shiny DsouzaMom of 2 children4 years agoA. Hi mom.
Please do not give water or cows milk or anything else to the child in the completion of 6 months.
You can give just breastfeed and if it is not enough top up with formula milk till the 6 month.
As giving water may reduce the nutritional intake of the child and which is not good
