When to stop Formula?

Question

Hi everyone!!! FTM here!! And since we’re approaching the big 1 😭😭 I’m wondering when do we stop giving infant formula and begin milk? Or is it good to do the a Toddler Formula? 
We currently give our son enfamil neuropro the yellow one.. 
And for milk we personally don’t drink cow milk we drink almond milk or coconut milk

Answer

My pediatrician recommended to switch at one. I plan on switching whenever I run out of formula which will probably be just after 1. She already gets milk in a straw cup at meal times but still formula in her bottles.

Answer

You can start introducing homogenized (3.25%) milk to your babe anytime now. You don’t have to replace formula per say. It’s good to introduce it and have baby begin to like the flavor and then slowly switch out bottles. 16oz of milk products is the maximum in a day so when you do switch make sure you watch the intake of milk, cheese, yogurt etc.  Doctors advise to start giving them milk in a cup or silly cup first, not a bottle. And do not give them almond/coconut milk. It’s not the same nutrients for them. Good luck !

Answer

My pediatrician has us doing half-and-half bottles now for my preemie, mixing formula with cow's milk (or she approved soy or almond). And as we near Sept 10th we'll be working towards 100% milk 0 formula. He's currently 11 months adjusted age, 12.5 months actual age.
