Hi .i undestood your conern
Its aboslutely fine to give cow milk to baby of 11 months old. and one more thing that cow milk is better than buffalo milk.only care you have to take that first boil milk prperly and after it becomes cool. you should give it to baby.Never used unboiled milk,it may cause loose motion.
Thanks
