When did you start to switch from formula/breast milk to whole milk?

Question

breast milk to whole milk?" /> 
I know no one is perfect and every child is different. I have a 7 1/2 month old who spits up and I am constantly being told that if I were to switch him to whole milk, that he wouldn’t spit up as often. Just wondering when to make that switch. I feel like he is still too young, but I’ll try anything if it will help his tummy.

Answer

Whoever is telling you that is very wrong. If anything it will make it worse for them because their stomach can’t handle it at that age. 
Per our pediatrician, we started the transition at 11.5 months and was fully switched by 12 months.

Answer

A 7.5-month-old needs to be on formula or breastmilk. Our daughter started self-weaning from formula at 9 months and we dropped it completely once she was 11 months.

Following because my son is 7 months and spews way too much

Answer

I’ve heard if you add baby cereal like oatmeal or rice to the milk it helps. You really shouldn’t start babies on cow milk until one year old.

Answer

My supply has always dried up at 6 months so I have had no choice but to switch to formula all 3 times

Answer

I'd probably switch to soy formula.. they they are spitting up cow's milk formula

Answer

That's way to early to switch. I didnt switch til 11 months with my kids. My youngest was a monster spitter and spit ALL DAY LONG....we would change clothes anywhere from 7-10 times a day. I used Similac for spit up and it helped a ton but he still spit. It gets worse before it gets better and baby will eventually grow out of it.
