I've been attempting to make the switch from formula to milk and DS doesn't want anything to do with it. I've tried a sippy several times and a bottle (even though pedi told me not to do this).
What method worked for you? I'm tired of buying formula!!
Re: How did you switch to whole milk? DS refuses!

Some people have success mixing it, and just decreasing the ratio of formula to milk. We did not have success with that however. The only thing that worked for us was what PP suggested. We just picked a day and offered nothing but milk in a sippy cup, and eventually she got thirsty enough to drink it (after a morning of refusal and fussiness). It was definitely as stubborn thing, not a dislike or intolerance to the taste.
A friend of mine read that after 2 days of offering nothing but milk, the body will start to crave it and they will drink it. (I don't know where she read this or if there is any truth to it)
This is exactly what I was going to write. We took a little longer for the transition, but for no particular reason other than we had a "free" (one of my friends' LOs stopped using the very formula we used so she gave us a ton of factory-direct product which was SO useful) container to use up. We only did milk in bottles and sippies for water, then when we went to cups for milk it wasn't that bad. Good luck!
