10-13 mth olds....how much milk?
I know some started DC on milk before one year, which is why I included 10 mths. But how much milk does your DC get in 1 day.
When does he/she get bottles and how much is in each bottle.
THANKS!

MY DD is 13 months - actually, she'll be 14 months on the 6th. She is off the bottle. She will drink a sippy with each meal, so about 6-8 ounces 3x a day.

DS has been on whole milk fully since he was 11.5 months and gets 2 bottles a day each 8oz. Although he doesn't really finish it, he drinks anywhere between 6&7oz for each bottle but their are times he drinks 8 so I make 8. I want to try and get him off the morning bottle but don't know how to.

Well, Ava drinks soy milk, but she gets two six ounce cups per day.

Do you want to get him to drink it out of a cup? We didn't have to do this, but I would have if needed....
My mom, an infant/toddler feeding specialist and slp, told me to start offering both the cup and bottle at the same time. In the cup, have it full of milk, in the bottle, put in 2/3 milk, 1/3 water so that it's watered down milk. Offer both. Next day, do 1/2 milk, 1/2 water, so on and so forth until the cup you offer has all the milk, and the bottle only has all water. Supposedly it works. We cut out Ava's bottles easily and cold turkey and she was fine.
