Guidelines for Giving Cow’s Milk:
✔ Start with Full-Fat Milk – Whole milk is best for brain development.
✔ Limit to 2 Cups (500 ml) per Day – Too much milk can reduce appetite for other foods and may lead to iron deficiency.
✔ Give in a Cup, Not a Bottle – Encourages better drinking habits.
✔ Avoid Adding Sugar or Flavorings – Plain milk is best.
Watch for These Signs:
⚠ Allergy Symptoms – Rashes, vomiting, diarrhea, or bloating.
⚠ Constipation – Some babies may have difficulty digesting cow’s milk.
If your child refuses plain milk, you can mix it with foods like porridge, smoothies, or cereals. Let me know if you need meal ideas!
