A. Dear parent, instead of giving cow milk, prefer to give breast milk to your child. Breast milk should be the primary source of milk at this age. Cow milk can be used to prepare milk products like curd, paneer.

A. oh god. pls no cow's milk for the babies below 2 years of age. As per WHO babies should be given breastmilk till 2 years. formula milk can be considered if unable to breast feed. look for formula which is rich in prebiotics. check with the pediatrician he would be the right person to guide my sil had similar issue and our pediatrician suggested Aptamil it is close to breastmilk
