A. hi Cow’s milk can be introduced to babies after their first birthday, but in small quantities. To start off, it can be mixed with breast milk, formula milk, or boiled and cooled water to allow the baby to have a smooth transition. You can consider sneaking it in other foods of your baby’s choice, initially, to check if he is able to digest it without any issues. You can mix cow’s milk with breast milk in the ratio of 1:3. This means that the mixed milk will be one-part cow’s milk and three parts breast milk. You can gradually start increasing the ratio of cow’s milk, while simultaneously reducing the ratio of breast milk. Eventually, the toddler can be offered cow’s milk alone
