A. Exclusive breast milk is advisable to be given till the time the baby completes 6 months of age. If breast milk production is less, it is advisable to give formula milk after consulting with your doctor. Cow's milk should be avoided before the baby turns one year old. Cow's milk has less iron content when compared to breast milk or iron fortified formula milk. Cow's milk is too heavy for a baby at this age. Cow's milk given at this age can upset his stomach and can even cause diarrhoea or even anemia.
