Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Cow's milk should be given to the baby only after completion of 1 year of age because the protein and fat in cow's milk is hard to digest before that and many a times there could be cow's milk protein allergy in babies and lactose intolerance which could be severe sometimes.
Also early introduction h of cows milk can lead to iron deficiency anemia as cow's milk lacks iron and vit c . Also there could bje micro bleeding in intestine because of the heavy protein of cow's milk .To start with cow's milk should be given than gradually you can shift to buffalo milk or a packet milk which is a mixture of two .

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. It is not recommended to give animal milk to the child before the age of one year so as of now if your loan your breast feeding you can go ahead with giving formula feeding to the child that’s the right thing to introduce right now.Write Your Answer Here
