A. It's best to wait until about 12 months to stop giving your baby formula. Babies still need nutrient-dense food sources, though, and cow's milk is the best thing to transition to. But your baby's digestive system won't be ready until they're about 1 year old.While both types of milk are beneficial, cow milk is better suited for children as it is easier to digest, has high water content and low amount of protein as compared to buffalo milk.Children need calcium for their overall growth and to develop strength and height. Hence, as a source of calcium, buffalo milk is better for children above one year of age. Cow milk is lower in calories as compared to buffalo milk – thus, buffalo milk can be enriching for infants over the age of one year.
