Can you give a baby cold milk?

It is generally recommended to avoid giving cold milk to babies under the age of one year. Their immature digestive systems may have difficulty processing the cold milk and it may cause discomfort such as gas, bloating, or diarrhea.

Babies under one year should primarily consume breast milk or formula, as they are the most appropriate and nutritious sources of nutrition for infants. If you choose to give your baby milk, it is generally best to offer them room temperature or warmed milk to prevent any potential digestive issues.

As babies grow older, their digestive systems develop and mature, and they can usually tolerate cold milk without any issues. However, it's always a good idea to introduce new foods and beverages gradually and monitor your baby's reaction to them.

If you have any concerns about giving your baby cold milk or introducing any new foods, it is always best to consult with a pediatrician for personalized advice and guidance.
