A. hi dear parent,ur baby is already 7 months old u should give solids if u don't have sufficient milk accumulation, moreover cow's milk contains very high amount of protein ur babies kidenys & digestive system is under developing phase it can't handle heavy protein and it can also cause allergic reaction in some cases,,why to take risk... better to give other things like moong dal ka pani, boiled rice water, mashed banana, boiled mashed potatoes...u can check so many recipies are there on internet which will be good for ur baby.. if ur baby still crave for milk then give formula milk..few old parents says in there tym they were feeding cow's milk so that many of us new mom's get confused but i thing is that they were giving cow's milk and water in 1:3 ratio with 1 cardamom & very small quantity of sugar (still I saw few mothers following traditional pattern). good luck
