Breast milk to cows milk?

Question

How early have some of you transitioned your babies from breast milk to cows milk? My son just turned 10 months. My milk supply is dropping, and I have enough frozen breastmilk to probably make it to 11mo, I just don’t want to have to transition him from breast milk to formula to cows milk. Has anyone given there baby cows milk before 12mo?

Answer

Definitely talk with your ped and get it okayed before you do anything

Answer

Thanks ladies! Got the ok from my pediatrician. My son is a very good eater and not picky at all so she said it would be fine to start him on whole milk. So I’ll probably start slowly introducing it in a few weeks.

Answer

Yep. I started giving her an ounce or two every few days around 10.5 months then gradually increased. She is 11.5months now and I have cut her down to 2-3 nursing sessions and 2 sippys of milk. And she sips on water randomly thru the day.She would be fine completely on whole milk at this point I just don’t want to give up the nursing sessions yet😬cause I’m being selfish😂

Answer

My pediatrician hates cows milk. He recommended toddler formula until 2 if weaning from breast milk.

Answer

My son started cows milk at 10 months old per his pediatrician, we moved and for some reason he refused his bottles and formula, I tried to put the formula in a sippy cup and he wouldn't take but would take milk from a sippy. So by 10 months he was off the bottle and formula
