A. Hi, please avoid giving cow milk or any other kind of milk until completion of one year. As they are heavy to digest and may cause infection. You can give breastfeed and formula milk as a top feed if your breast milk is not sufficient. Please consult your paediatrician he willSuggest you formula milk which has all the nutrients and good for baby.
