A. Hi have a good day weight gain, Urine frequency 10 times a day minimum. content baby, sleeping well .are all indicative of adequate milk supply or feeding. also more you feed ,more the supply. keep yourself hydrated., Have nutritious diet. as a main drink, cow milk should be given after 1 year. it can be used in small quantities in recipes for babies after 6 months. formula is made especially for babies. cow milk proteins minerals are heavy to digest. hence not recommended
