A. Cow's milk and buffaloes milk should only be introduced once the baby turns one year old. Cow's milk is heavy for a baby's stomach and buffaloes milk is much more heavier. At this age, a baby needs more iron for growth and development. Cow's milk and buffaloes milk has less iron content when compared to breast milk or iron fortified formula milk.
