A. You should start giving whole cow's milk to your child. Make the gradual transition by first replacing one feed and then gradually replacing the subsequent feeds. A baby sometimes does not suckle on your breast because of hunger but for comfort. So refrain from offering your breast for comfort. Try and distract your baby and indulge him in some activity that he may enjoy doing. Whenever the hunger pang strikes, try giving some solid food to your baby. He may act a bit grumpy for the first few times but when you offer cow's milk or solid foods, he will associate them with his hunger and may shift his focus from breast milk.
