A. You should give your baby only breast milk or iron-fortified formula during the first 12 months of life, not cow's milk. Starting at age 6 months, you may add solid foods to your baby's diet. ... Your baby's system cannot handle the high levels of these nutrients in cow's milk: Protein.Sodium.Potassium.
