A. Cow's milk can only be introduced when the baby turns one year old. Once the baby is one, you can give whole cow's milk and milk products to your kid. Cow's milk has less iron content when compared to breast milk or iron fortified formula milk. During the first year of their lives, babies need lots of iron and introducing cow's milk at this stage can cause iron deficiency anemia.
