If your child is tolerating cow's milk no harm in giving it but check for allergy, anemia and general development also....in addition to nan 1 pro. Start weaning food after 6 months of age..

Cow's milk is not recomended in children less than 2 yrs of age because of the tendency to cause anemia and cow's milk protein allergy.You can continue with Nan1 then Nan 2 aftr 6months or give buffalo milk.
