Raw milk?

Question

So I'm not ready to start giving my son milk. And I didn't plan on doing it anyway as I don't believe cows milk is good for toddlers. However my aunt gives her children raw cows milk and goats milk that she gets from a credible farm. The good fatty content in it is good for the brain which is removed when it's pasteurized. However what are you guys opinions on raw milk? I know some totally disagree due to the idea of it not being "clean" but other than that?

Answer

There's a risk of illness and even death with raw milk and I would never trust any farm with my babies life, no matter how clean I think they are or whose child drinks from the same farm without issue. Personally it's not worth the risk for me. 
You can look up unpasteurized milk on the CDC website and decide if it's the right thing for your child. Also, your pediatrician should be able to help you come to a decision. 
There are other alternatives to cows milk that many moms safely use if you're interested. Again, your pediatrician can guide you if you go this route because sometimes depending on the alternative "milk" chosen, dietary adjustments are necessary.

Answer

Why can't you just buy some from an Whole Foods store? Then you know it's been check and meets standards

Answer

You need to be able to trust the source, I would take a trip down to the farm.

Answer

Isn’t that kinda expensive? But I definitely wouldn’t do it because its not clean and can have major consequences especially in a baby whos immune system isn’t very strong.
