How much milk is your 2 year old drinking?

And did you make the switch from whole to low fat?

Re: How much milk is your 2 year old drinking?

hardly anything lately because of post nasal drip....dairy products produce phlegm. She drank some today.

And no we did not switch because she's a little bean....I figure she needs all the fat she can get

DS has 12oz of milk a day and then some yogurt too.
I haven't made the switch to a lower fat milk because I still have some whole. My ped said I could use any, 2%, 1% or skim. I think I am going to use 2% or 1%.

She drinks about 16 ozs a day. We're sticking with whole for another year because she's a peanut and her sister will be whole milk beginning in july. We drink 1% so it won't be a biggy, but she needs the fat.

At 2 years they told me to try to keep her to 16-20oz of milk a day. And our ped doesn't move from whole milk to 2% until 3 years old.

Ella drinks a lot of milk. I'd say 16-18oz/day on average.

Hmm, about 2-3 sippy cups a day. I guess about 12-18 ounces. I will be switching to 1% after she turns 2 next month. Just easier because my son drinks 1% too.

Re: How much milk is your 2 year old drinking?

at most she drinks 8-9 oz/day... I did switch her to 2% recently...

She eats a lot of cheese and has a yogurt drink/day (usually) so I'm not concerned with her calcium intake...

And she's far from tiny so I made the swithc...

Probably 12-16 oz/day. I'll keep him on whole milk probably another year because he is skinny.

About 12-16 oz. a day. She will be two next month, so as of right now she is still on whole milk. DH and I drink 2%, so as soon as the ped. gives the ok, that's what she will be drinking also.

About 18 oz a day. DS is allergic to dairy so we're still on regular soy milk.

Re: How much milk is your 2 year old drinking?

My DS is almost 23 months and he has about 16 oz a day. He's still on whole milk. I buy a lot of 1% with my other kids but I am still buying 1/2 gallons of the whole for him. I will switch him after he's 2 as well.

She drinks about the same...sometimes less. Just wasn't sure if she was drinking too little but with the response I don't think so
