When does your LO drink their milk cups?

A while back, I read up on sample 12 month old schedules and almost all of them said they give milk cups with each meal. I feel like this is heavy on their stomach to have milk + food and it might make them eat less? Unless I’m mistaken? I’ve tried it out and it seems my son does get full faster and id rather just give water at meal times and milk at snack times (with the exception of breakfast, where I will always give milk). I know I can do what I want and there aren’t really any “rules” to this. Just wondering what you guys do for your babes?
