POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. You should give your baby only breast milk or iron-fortified formula during the first 12 months of life, not cow's milk. Starting at age 6 months, you may add solid foods to your baby's diet.Wait until your baby is sufficiently hungry before feeding. Try changing the bottle size and shape, the nipple, or other aspects of the bottle to see what your baby responds to. Experiment with the temperature of the milk or formula. Breast milk is lukewarm, so make sure the bottle isn't too warm or cool.Start by replacing one feeding per day with a sippy cup or a regular cup of whole cow's milk. If your baby doesn't like it, mix 1/2 cow's milk and 1/2 breast milk or formula. Slowly lower the ratio over time. Slowly replace other feedings with cow's milk until you are no longer breastfeeding or using formula.At 12 months old (but not before), your child can be introduced to cow's milk. Before your child is 12 months old, cow's milk may put him or her at risk for intestinal bleeding. It also has too many proteins and minerals for your baby's kidneys to handle and does not have the right amount of nutrients your baby needs.
