Question 2

when can my baby have dairy?

Accepted Answer

By 4 month?: Baby formula is essentially made from milk-protein and so it is dairy, just well-processed. By 4 months, baby can have cereal, stage1 baby-food etc..A bit of tasty ice cream to try is not a bad thing either. The reason  regular milk is not used because it does not have a good balance of  important substances such as faffy acid and certain vitamins etc compare to formula..
Good luck.
