Q. #AskTheExpert Hello Doctor, My baby boy is 4 months and 13 days old. He has left mother's milk 2 months back as due to some reason my lactation stopped. Now he is just on cow's milk... So, is it okay to not give him anything else except milk (we feed him cow's milk)? Or shall we start some fruit juice or something else?
