Separating Meat and Milk for an Infant
Question
My Son is a 10-month-old infant who eats both solid food and formula. Is it necessary to maintain a separation between meat and milk for him, and if so, for how long?Is there a difference if he is still breastfeeding, or does it not matter?
Answer
Shalom,
There is no difference whether he is breastfeeding or not.
At this age, there is no need to maintain any separation, just do not give him both foods at the same time.
