When did your toddler stop drinking milk?

Question

My pediatrician told me whole milk is not needed for my 15 month old but she loves milk 😩 does your little one still drink milk? If so how much?

Answer

You do not have to stop giving your child milk. That’s absolutely ridiculous lol. If she likes it, there’s no harm.

Answer

There is nothing wrong with milk unless you can't tolerate it 😅 My 2,5 year old drinks it daily. Several cups. It's fine.

Answer

Like regular buy at the store milk?? They never have lol. My oldest is a teen and has been drinking milk since he turned a year old

Answer

Oh man my 22 mo girl loves whole milk! You don’t have to stop giving her milk!

Answer

What? Thats odd! My ped didn’t mention anything like that at my 15 month olds checkup. He did say lets try to get him off drinking it from a bottle. He loved the boob and once I was done with that he now loves the bottle and I’d rather he drink it then not! They do recommend 16oz as being enough but my guy gets a little more than that bc he loves milk. Still eats enough regular food as well. My teen, tween, and husband still drink several glasses a day as well. We go through roughly 5 gallons a week. 😅😬

Answer

I mean, my mom is 61 and has milk daily. You never have to stop. 
My son is 14 months. He loves milk. We give it to him with breakfast and after dinner. The rest of the day he drinks water (occasionally juice if constipated). 
No idea why your pediatrician would say to stop at 15 months. Just doesn’t need to be a main part of diet.

Answer

Cows milk, formula, or breastmilk? 😫
Cows milk they can have as soon as they’re a year, it’s not necessary and it’s outdated information, but they can definitely have it.
Formula they don’t need past a year, but they make toddler formula a lot of parents (myself included) used for awhile.
Breastmilk is beneficial and recommended up until 2 years old, but it’s still good for them to continue drinking it for as long as they/you want.

Answer

Might be crazy but my 3 year old boy loves milk. I’ve been lying to the doctors. Not 100% because he’s healthy but they always act weird when I tell them he’s still drinking milk

Answer

Your doctor is weird! My son loves milk even at 2, don't listen to your doctor.

Answer

As long as it’s not displacing other foods it’s ok to give milk past 14 months.
