Re: when did u introduce whole milk

I think it's typically started at 1 year. Some do it earlier, some do it later.

I waited until DD was 13 months b/c I liked all the nutrients, etc. that she was getting from formula, esp. since she's not the best eater.

We did it at 11.5 months...we did it with no problems and cold turkey. DS never had any formula or feeding issues though.

We officially started it today. DS is turning 1 on Monday. We ran out of formula this morning and I figured he's close enough to a year Chat Icon

So far no problems. I just switched him cold turkey, and he doesn't seem to know the difference!

Re: when did u introduce whole milk

I think almost every ped says to hold off until 1 year. We waited until DD was a bit over 13 months b/c she was EBF. Now at 16 months she still gets BM 5 out of 7 days per week at lunch and whole milk 2 days per week with lunch.
