Still using formula? 🍼

My little boy has just turned one 🥹🥳 and is still having 3 x 7oz bottles a day (with 3 meals) plus snacks (he’s a hungry boy😂). Just curious on how many of you are still using formula with your little ones, once they’ve turned 1 and if so how many bottles are you giving them?

We're still on formula 2x bottles (8oz drinks mainly about 6oz sometimes the whole 8 but other times 3oz) one before bed and one when he wakes in the morning and then he doesn't stop eating and drinking water alternative milk as cmpa and a odd juice all through the day. But I figured most babies go onto a follow on formula/milk ... well with a amino acid formula they don't do a follow on so he can still have it in my eyes until he decides he no longer needs it.my boy his choice 😊

We are! My daughter turned 1 on the 8th and at that point we were just starting to wean from 4-3 bottles. She was poorly just before her birthday and didn't want to eat or drink anything, so that helped us drop a bottle. Yesterday we managed to make her mid afternoon bottle just cows milk. She's now on 5oz cows milk with 3oz formula for her morning bottle and 6oz formula and 2oz cows milk for her bedtime bottle. By the end of this week we want her only on cows milk in the morning, maybe drop the cows milk mid afternoon and then be 50/50 with her bedtime bottle. I'm aiming for no formula by the time she's 13 months. We didn't want to rush it because she's a real milk monster and didn't want to go cold turkey with her

We are also! Ours turned one on the 10th and we kept him on formula as he was poorly. He varies between 2 and 3 bottles. Most of the time it's two bottles as he loves his food. We've just started to do one bottle of cows milk in the morning and then formula in the evening. With water and fresh juice throughout the day.

Our twins turned 1 on the 8th and we stopped using formula about 4 days ago, only because I wanted to use up what we had left 🤣 They're on cows milk now, 3 bottles a day between 5oz and 6 oz. We dropped from 4 to 3 once the formula ran out x

My boy turns 1 on Sunday (27th) Has the munchkin 360 cup full of warm cows milk with his breakfast & the 6oz of formula before bed. On Sunday I will just replace the formula before bed with cows milk.

We combi feed and we're keeping the bedtime formula bottle for the time being. I'm switching to stage 3 though, because we're using kendamil and stage 1 is often in short supply

We are too. My LO is 1 on Thursday. Planning to start switching to Oat Milk then. My son has 2-3 bottles in 24 hours depending on if he wakes up during the night or not. Dropping bottles is not something I’m going to rush tbh, to me he is still so little, breastfed babies still have milk so I’m not stressing about if he wants a bit of oat milk before bed you know?

We’re doing half and half at the moment, half milk, half formula, and will have her weened off formula fully in a couple of weeks. Really it’s just to use up our big stash of formula and also not shock her system too much :)
