1 year olds and whole milk

How did you introduce regular milk to your 1 year olds?

Went from formula to whole milk at 12 months. Started with replacing 1 bottle a day... then 2 days later we just replaced all bottles with milk!

Re: 1 year olds and whole milk

We just introduced dd. My peds had me slowly introduce.. depending on how much formula you give. We were giving dd 3- 8oz bottles of formula, so the first day she had me do 2 ozs of whole milk and 6 ozs of formula, then each day i would subsituted another oz milk for the formula. We just started a full 8oz bottle of milk yesterday, NO MORE FORMULA Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

eta: my peds had me start after her one year check up.. which was on her birthday.

We gave him a bottle one day and he chugged it. He was still getting other bottles of BM, but we never mixed.

Re: 1 year olds and whole milk

Swapped out 2oz of formula for milk every 2 days until complete. This may have been longer than necessary, but DS had reflux and we were trying to make sure he made the swicth OK.
