When did you ladies stop giving your LO formula/breast milk?

Question

My baby is 11 months and still drinks his bottle. I’m not sure when the perfect time it is to wean. Do I give him his milk with a sippy cup now? He doesn’t really eat solids. Hates it. Does that mean I should continue giving him his bottle?

Answer

You want to start weaning from the bottle (and formula) at 12 months. You get into a slippery slope when you give whole milk in a bottle. Then you have a 2 year old taking a bottle still. So just start offering in a cup. Personally, my kids only drink water after they wean from breastfeeding.

Answer

If baby isn’t take in solids, you need to give calories somehow. I’d continue

Answer

We didn't want to waist what we already bought, so he continued to have a bottle of formula before bed until almost 15 months. But we did cut down the amount of formula at 12m and offered more solid food then.

Answer

We starting introducing cow milk at 12 months. Once we ran out of formula at 12.5 months we exclusively fed cow milk and three solid meals a day.

Answer

We stopped formula at her 1st birthday. She took well to solid foods and switched to whole milk then.

Answer

i stopped giving my first formula at 14 months, she also took a little bit of time to get on solids.
i plan on breastfeeding my baby until two if everything goes well. 😌
they make toddler formula and pedisure, i used both for my first! 
we never did cows milk because i think it’s icky and outdated information, but once she stopped drinking formula, we just had her drink water and oat milk! 
just find a food your LO likes and keep giving it to them. ours was grilled cheese and the gerber cheese puffs 😂

Answer

We continued formula until about 15 months. My son was ok with solids but not great. Between 12 months and 15 months, we slowly decreased the amount of formula and increased the amount of solids throughout the day. If your child is having an issue with solids, then it’s best to continue and work really hard on the solids.
