Whole milk- how much to give?

Question

How many ounces of whole milk should I give my 13 month in a day? I keep getting mixed advice. Thanks for ur help!!

Answer

Whole milk isn’t a meal replacement, it’s for hydration. So just offer it with meals and then give water for hydration between meals.

Answer

Everything I’ve seen says either no more than 16 oz or 24 oz. depends on the pediatrician.

Answer

My health visitor told me my 1 year old needs 5 portions of calcium a day, so a child sized glass of milk would be 1 portion, cheese another etc etc. 
You can also get calcium in leafy green vegetables such as broccoli and spinach apparently. Try not to get too hung up on the amount of milk and instead look to balance your child’s diet as per current guidelines.
Also just as a side note- it’s important for babies of 12 months to be moving away from using a bottle and moving towards using cups or beakers.

Answer

My 15 month old has about 16 oz per day.

Answer

I give my son 6-7 Oz of milk for breakfast and after dinner. The rest of the day I do water and sometimes a little juice.
