11 months...Doctor said to start then by mixing it with the formula, making the ratio a little more milk every week until theres no more formula

Right before 13 months. We waited to see our Ped first for the 1 year well-check.

ETA: We switched cold turkey. No problems.

At around 12.5 months. We planned to do it right around her birthday but she was sick for like 2 weeks so we waited for that to pass and then made the transition.

Re: When did you transition to milk- a poll for fun!

The paper we got from the Ped says 10months but she wants DS to wait until a year...i dont know if it has something to do with his reflux or the fact he is on soy

DD1--we started introducing reg milk at 11.5 months. within a few weeks, it was all regular milk.

DD2 started stealing her sister's regular milk around 9.5-10mths. at first i stopped her, and then I would let her have half a cup or so. around 10.5 mths, i would give her a cup of regular milk every now and then (no more than a few times a week.) starting yesterday (she's 11 mths today), i am doing 1-2 cups a day on a regular basis. i nurse twice per day, and the rest is using my freezer stash

DD is also stealing milk from my nephew who is watched by my MIL, so I figure..heck, maybe now its time. Will check with ped. Thanks everyone!!!

I said other because I'm not sure what's happening with DD.

For DS, we switched him cold turkey after his 1 year ped visit.

DD turns 1 tomorrow and she has a milk allergy so I am waiting to see what we are going to do on Monday at her ped visit.

We did the same. Although when I went to my ped she asked "did you switch yet" so I obviously could have done so earlier.

Ped said cold turkey was fine so we tried that but DS started rejecting bottles so we went back to a slow transition.
