Hard Time Transitioning Off Formula?

Question

Any other moms having trouble transitioning their babies to whole milk? I have been trying to gradually add 1 oz of whole milk with 4 oz of formula to my baby’s bottle. She definitely notices and will only drink 1-2 oz instead of her normal 4-5 oz. She only turned one on the 17th, but I feel pressure to get her off formula. She eats well and only drinks 15-18 oz a day so I am not afraid of her filling up on formula and not eating.

Answer

I was doing 4 ounce formula, 2 ounce milk, then the next week 4 ounce milk, 2 ounce formula. The day after her first birthday she just refused her bottle and has been on milk in a cup ever since. Perhaps your baby is self weaning off the formula? 
It was hard mentally to go from bottles throughout the day to meals with milk as a side, but she was clearly ready.

Answer

I’m Hispanic and before transitioning whole milk I’m giving my baby Nido and he loves it and it’s only 14 bucks half of what I used to pay for his enfamil, just going to do the Nido for like 2 months then I’ll do the galon.

Answer

Luckily she didnt even notice the transition.  At first she gave a disgusting face to the milk, but by the next day she was sipping it like it was the best thing ever.
 Same with pacifiers. She cried for maybe 10 minutes the first night and now she doesn't need them anymore.

Answer

Shockingly my son knocked out all day time bottles and switched to sippy cup and whole milk with zero issues. We still do the bottle before bed...that will be harder to break

Answer

I am doing half and half but he eats a lot of other foods. He still drinks 4 full bottles per day, half and half.

Answer

If decrease formula and add WM.
