Hello,

Ideally, 11(eleven) month old baby should be fed on mothers milk along with cooked & mashed vegetables & fruits. Mothers should take home made nutritious food & feed the babies.

Mother's milk is better han cow's milk. Cow's milk or lactogen should only be given in emergency situations.

If your child is having a recurring cold you can get him physically examined by a pediatrician. The recurrent viral or bacterial infection is not good. He may need antibiotics or vitamin drops.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
