Is it safe to dilute cow milk and give it to my baby?

No. Even diluted animal milk is not a safe substitute for breast milk for babies, especially in the first year of life. Nature has provided milk that is very specific to the needs of each species — cow milk is suited to the growth needs of calves, not human babies. If breastfeeding is not possible, please talk to your doctor for advice on the correct alternatives.
