I started my 14 month old at 12pm this and he wouldn’t take to it. The last 2 weeks I have been sneaking it in. Started off 20% cows milk and 80% formula. Then after few days kept upping it. We are now on 80% and this morning gave him 100% cows milk and he drank it all. He wasn’t ready in Jan but definitely was at 14 months. I also put it on his cereal so very very slowly introduced it. And it worked. Was recommended by nursury this way

My little girl is also still on formula, she won't touch cows milk unless it's in scrambled egg 🙄

We’ve worked our way down from 6oz formula to 5oz cows milk with 1oz formula, Im just doing it now to finish the box. Going really gradually worked for us

Me! 😅 I was that baby that loved formula and hated cow’s milk on its own. And now…I’m an adult who hates cow’s milk on its own. I think some people just don’t like the way it tastes. It’s nowhere near as sweet as formula. My 14 month old, on the other hand, loves cow’s milk, could drink a pint a day. We switched him cold turkey from formula to milk and he just went right with it. I guess my advice is if they won’t do cow’s milk, they can stay on formula or follow-on, it’s better than them not having anything.

Yes same

My little one won't drink cows milk but was happy to wean off formula in favour of more food , so we just provide plenty calcium rich foods through the day

Try Filtered cows milk t eh goats milk 🤷🏾‍♀️ do 5050 then reduce formula in ounces

My boy is also on formula tub 1 still at 15 months old x

We did a gradual change by swapping oz’s out and she now takes cows milk fine. Did the same for my eldest but as soon as it was 100% cows milk she refused it. I didn’t offer any milk from then, she didn’t need it so I just upped the yoghurt/cheese intake during the day.

How many oz do they take? Try doing 3/4 formula 1/4 cows milk, eg 6oz formula 2oz cows milk for an 8oz bottle. Then slowly increase after a few days (just add an extra ounce of cows milk and one less ounce formula)
