Mom of a 3 yr 3 m old girl3 years ago

Can I give cow milk mixed with water to my 3 months old. I found contradiction on internet and the grandmother says we can mix twice the water. Can you suggest please. Also we gave her once and she drank it completely with no signs of trouble as such the entire day.

A. it is goodt not to give your baby cow, buffalo , goat milk or any kind of milk until they are at least one year old as it has complex proteins difficult for babies to digest. breastmilk or formula is the best thing for your baby, and ensure they get the right balance of nutrients.

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years ago

A. At 12 months old (but not before), your child can be introduced to cow's milk. Before your child is 12 months old, cow's milk may put him or her at risk for intestinal bleeding. It also has too many proteins and minerals for your baby's kidneys to handle and does not have the right amount of nutrients your baby needs.
