Q.

My 1yr 2 mo old daughter doesn't take even a sip of milk from outside and my BM has reduced a lot. How to make her drink milk as I have tried different flavours but she doesn't drink.

A. Start with few spoons on the first day. Continue it for two more days. If ur baby tolerates it then gradually increase the amount. Also introduce cows milk in other forms like chapathi, idly or dosa or rice in milk like that. But never expect the baby to drink one glass of milk on the first go. It will take time. Also Don't force him too much everyday, he might start disliking it completely. So give milk one day and next day give an alternate source of calcium. Also to start with give only less amount of milk and once she starts drinking slowly increase the quantity. You can introduce milk in other forms like chapathi, idly or dosa or rice in milk like that. You can give other alternative sources of calcium or other food items which will give the same nutrients as milk like green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouted grains, ragi, soya products etc. Instead of milk try other dairy products like curd, paneer, butter milk, ghee, butter, cheese etc.,
