POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. You should wait until your baby has reached her first birthday, before giving cow's milk as a main drink. It is fine to use small amounts of cow's milk in cooking from six months onwards. Curd, paneer and mild cheese are also fine to feed your baby from six months.Cows' milk can be used in cooking or mixed with food from around 6 months of age, but should not be given as a drink until your baby is 1 year old. Full-fat dairy products, such as pasteurised cheese and plain yoghurt or fromage frais, can be given from around 6 months of age.Beyond digestion. Also, cow's milk contains high concentrations of protein and minerals, which can stress a newborn's immature kidneys and cause severe illness at times of heat stress, fever, or diarrhea. In addition, cow's milk lacks the proper amounts of iron, vitamin C, and other nutrients that infants need.

Protein.
Sodium.
Potassium.
