i'd personally do the milk but that's just based on my experience. i had to wean DD overnight when she was almost 10 months and went to milk instead. went totally fine.

How about goat's milk. It easier to digest than whole milk.

I stopped nursing DS at 10 months because he was way to active. I started him with rice milk or soy milk while I was weaning than I went to whole milk I felt that I worked way to hard to keep him off of formula to use it at almost a year.
