Ok so how do i mix formula and whole milk?

Ok so nextweek i will start transitioning my son to whole milk. I want to give him half milk and half formula in one bottle per day.

So how do i do that? For instance he takes 6 ounces -7 ounces per feeding. So do I put like 3 ounces of formula and 3 ounces of milk.

yep. Then as he gets use to it, put in more milk and less formula til it's 100% milk.

My DD refused milk straight up, but some don't like it mixed. Just go by his taste.

I had alot of formula left over, so i would reduce it once a week by an ounce.

I would start with 4 ounces formula to 2 or 3 of whole milk and just gradually add more whole milk than formula over course of the week.

We did it with johnny pretty quickly...i actually mixed the two only for 2 days i think then it was all whole. He loved it, and no bad reactions...
