Mom of a 4 yr 1 m old girl3 years ago

Q.

My baby girl is 5 and half months old. She has switched to top feed due to increased demands and my doctor suggested me to give mother dairy toned buffalo milk. I wanted to ask if powder milk is better or buffalo milk. Many people asked me to give cow milk rather buffalo milk. What is best for my baby?

A. Hello mom Would not recommend any kind of animal milk as of now for the baby instead you can start with weaning foods as per her age you can give him liquids first such as dal or rice water or vegetable soup or fresh fruit juices and alternated with your feed normally cows milk is quite similar to mother’s milk that can be given in the cooked form from the age of 9 to 10 months
