Accepted Answer

Hello mom breast feeding at least till the age of one is good enough but depends on many factors such as mothers health and her milk. Production if it’s normal and good it’s good , the antibodies that it has is very good for the baby immunity and also over all growth but yes as the baby is growing their requirement and demand changes and alone it cannot be met through her feed so solids are to be given

Hello mom it does happen. At times try to give him some water but generally he is too small now would suggest you to continue this for a year atleast as after the age of one cows milk can be introduce and that could be of some help
