1. The appropriate age for babies to drink milk powder. When a child is just born, breast milk is the best food. But for babies who cannot be breastfed for some reasons, milk powder has become the second choice. So, when can you give your baby milk powder? According to expert advice, it is best not to feed babies less than 6 months after birth with milk powder, because at this time, breast milk or formula milk can meet their nutritional needs. After 6 months, complementary foods can be gradually added, and formula milk can be gradually introduced. 2. How to choose a suitable milk powder brand? There are many different brands and types of infant formula milk powder on the market.
