Q: My one-year-old son takes 5-6 breast feeds in a day. When can I introduce regular milk in his diet?

A:You should start introducing regular milk now that your child is one year old. It would be easier to introduce milk in the form of dahi or dalia or suji ki kheer. After he accepts this, you can introduce regular milk.
