If you want to give your baby cows milk, boil it and cool to room temperature and give. Do not add any water or dilute the milk. Start small amount first and if baby tolerates can increase. Tomato soup and bottle gourd soup can be given. 👍👍 Regards, Dr Neha Pandey MBBS MD DNB FMUHS FISPN PediaCare Clinic MALAD WEST
