Skim milk or full fat?

Question

I didn’t know this but I just read that at 2 years old, you should be switching form full fat milk to 1% or skim. ?

Answer

We do whole milk and will probably continue it. Less sugar and i don’t see any reason to give him lesser fatty milk 🤷‍♀️

Answer

In the whole country here kids drink 0% milk, I disagree with that Xbox we at home drink full fat

Answer

We use/drink whole milk in our house in general so we’ll probably never switch. (Although he’ll probably get low fat at school.) A lot of the nutrients in milk are fat soluble and I’m not concerned about the extra calories.

Answer

We still do whole milk and probably will never switch as it tastes so much better.

Answer

Our pediatrician recommended we go back to whatever we drank before, which for us is 2%, so she drinks 2%. Our pediatrician said that was fine. 🤷‍♀️

Answer

Where I live I don’t see 2% so I’m mixing full and 1%. I also think it’s fine to just give whole milk if your family/child doesn’t consume a lot of fat. We don’t do a lot of cheese for example and my son only drinks a cup of milk at night.

Answer

We are on 2% now. He’s obsessed with milk. His doctor told us since he drink a lot of milk to lay off the whole milk

Answer

We give whole milk still but he’s on the smaller side and goes through food strikes so pedi said it’s fine

Answer

We still just give water. Haha.

Answer

I think now you can just give whatever you drink at home. We don’t drink milk, but we get a small thing of 2% for my son to put in his oatmeal and smoothies, he doesn’t like to drink milk. He eats a lot of cheese and has some yogurt, his ped said that’s fine.
