A. dear mum, you can give any sort of milk to your baby whether it's cow milk or buffalo milk. however you should avoid bottle feeding as it can be a source of infection. it is better to feed using katori and spoon.

A. It's generally recommended to avoid giving regular cow or buffalo milk to babies under the age of one year. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) suggests that babies should be exclusively breastfed or formula-fed until around six months of age, as their digestive systems are not yet mature enough to handle the proteins and minerals in cow or buffalo milk. After six months, small amounts of cow's milk can be gradually introduced, but it's still preferable to continue breastfeeding or formula feeding as the primary source of nutrition until your baby is at least one year old. At 1 year and 2 months old, your baby's digestive system may be more mature and better able to tolerate cow's milk. However, it's essential to ensure that cow's milk is offered in moderation and as part of a balanced diet that includes a variety of foods. If you're considering introducing cow's milk to your baby's diet, it's a good idea to consult with your pediatrician first. They can provide personalized guidance based on your baby's individual needs and health status. Additionally, they can advise you on the proper timing and quantity of cow's milk to offer to ensure your baby receives adequate nutrition while minimizing the risk of digestive issues or other complications.
