A. No, continue to breast feed your child & you can give some quantity of formula milk as well. Apart from that, nothing else is advised

A. For most babies, it's recommended to exclusively feed them breast milk or formula for the first six months of life. Cow's milk is not recommended as a primary drink for infants under 12 months of age because it lacks essential nutrients in the right proportions for a growing baby and can be difficult for them to digest. Introducing cow's milk too early can also increase the risk of developing allergies or intolerances. Additionally, cow's milk contains high levels of protein and minerals, such as sodium and potassium, which can strain a baby's immature kidneys. After six months, you can start introducing solid foods to your baby's diet, but cow's milk should not replace breast milk or formula as the main source of nutrition until at least 12 months of age. Once your baby is one year old, you can gradually introduce cow's milk as part of their diet, but it's essential to consult with your pediatrician to ensure a smooth transition and proper nutrition.
