My 5 month old baby has been advised for cow milk as substitute for formula. Do we need to boil milk every time before feeding it to baby?? does it affect the milk quality? what if we boil the milk once and then warm it before feeding.??

A. your baby is 5 month old, it is best not to give your baby cow, buffalo , goat milk or any other milk until they are at least one year old as it has complex proteins difficult for babies to digest.
