ExpertSHRUTI KANCHANLactation Educator and Counselor2 years agoA. It is generally recommended to delay introducing cow's milk until your baby is at least 12 months old. The reason for this is that cow's milk is not nutritionally adequate for infants, as it is low in iron, vitamin C, and other important nutrients that infants need to thrive.
Breast milk should continue to be the main source of nutrition for your baby until they are 12 months old. After 12 months, you can start to introduce cow's milk as an alternative to breast milk or formula in addition to a varied and balanced diet of solid foods.
It is important to note that some babies may have an allergy or intolerance to cow's milk protein. If your baby develops symptoms such as rash, wheezing, vomiting, or diarrhea after consuming cow's milk or dairy products, speak to your pediatrician immediately. They may recommend alternative sources of protein or further testing to determine if your baby has an allergy or intolerance.
