Weaning off formula

Has anyone else started weaning off formula now that they are coming up to a year? I have started mixing some whole milk in with formula to get him used to it

My little girl is dairy free but I’ve started giving her night time bottle as soya or oat milk, I am hoping to be off formula by 1 ( 2.5 weeks ) xx

Will you continue to give it in a bottle? As I read they shouldn’t have milk in bottles after 1

@Sarah I will eventually stop the bottles but she’s not interested in taking it from a sippy cup despite how much I’ve tried, so for now I’m not overly fussed that it’s coming from a bottle just more interested in the volume that she’s taking and making sure she’s not having to much xxx

My son didn’t stop having milk from a bottle until he was about 15 months old so I’ll set my target for then hopefully sooner though xx

I started by giving me boy 2 bottles first for his body to get used to it n see how he goes as he lots of wind and toileting problems when he was newborn. yesterday i started with 5onz formula and 2 onz milk, next bottle was 4onz formula and 3onz milk and so on, i started at 4pm last night so he will have his last bottle with 1onz forumla n 6onz milk this morning and then we will be on milk full time with 2/3 meals with snacks plus his bottles of milk. They also need 3 sources of calcium a day, like a yoghurt, weetabix with milk and a bottle xx
