How to I introduce cows milk to my 11 month old daughter?

[Kaykay034]

Shes turning 1 year old in 2 weeks. She loves food. She can hold down almost everything. Shes also a BIG girl. How long should i mix cows milk in with her formula for until i completly stop giving her formula? once shes drinking only cows milk do i give it to her the same times i would give her formula? (6 oz when she wakes up, 6 oz in the afternoon, and 6 oz before bed) how do you do it? and how much should she have in a day? Should she be drinking whole milk and only whole milk? please just tell me everything you know ! lol. I cant seem to find any other information on the internet.

We just introduced cows milk if we ran out of formula for a day or two and never had any problems. Then thats all she drank.

always whole milk; i just mixed it with her formula until it was all cow's milk; doc recommends 16 to 24 oz a day of milk, so she gets two 8 oz bottles at the moment, one when she wakes, and one at bedtime...she gets very very watered down juice in a sippy during the day and with her other meals/snacks...

Her doctor will let you know when to start that and how to do it at her 12 month doctor visit.
Most babies love the taste and have no problem with it.
My babies preferred it over formula.....I can see why, ever taste the stuff? hahaha

mix it half and half and then gradually just put more milk in it than formula i would go with whole milk because its the best if you give her fat free you are not giving her all the nutrients she needs. If you are just giving her six ounces give her more than that at least 8 and do the half and half, if you want you can start it now its just two weeks she should be fine.

my son is a couple weeks off turning one years old and he's been on cows milk for two weeks now,

the first time i tried it, i used it to make his baby cereal, that way it was only a little bit - and he showed no sign of allergies, or change of poo

the next day i gave him a little bit in his bottle after his solid feed (only 20mls) and he drank it all so i knew he like it

every day since i've given him cows milk bottle in the morning (same amount as formula amount) and i give him formula bottle at night

i'm gonna keep doing it this way for another two weeks or so, mainly cause i have a tin of formula left (which usually lasts 2 weeks, since i'm using formual for one bottle a day it'll last 4 weeks)

he still sometimes has a bottle around lunch, not everyday though, and i give him cows milk as well for that one

i just go by - if he has any bottles before lunch time its cow milk, if he has any bottles after lunch time i give him formula

i never mixed half cows milk/half formula - no need to

and i dont heat up the cows milk as much as i did the formula, its really hot where i live now so he likes to drink it almost straight out of the fridge
