Whole milk ?

How long will you do whole milk? Just got a flyer saying 2 year olds should drink 16 oz of low fat milk a day.

I think we will switch to low fat at two but will check with her pedi to be sure.

Yep, it's typically two. My niece is two and a half, but her pedi recommended that she stay on whole milk for now since she is on the small side.

We are switching to 2% at 2 years.

Our pedi said we would discuss it at her 2 year visit.  He said continue whole milk and whole mike yogurt until then.

My 7,5, 4 and 2 year olds still drink whole milk (and so do DH and I).  DS3 has a milk intolerance so he drinks almond milk.  I will say that we generally don't "drink" milk, we usually put it on cereal etc. ans when we go out most restaurants usually have 2%.

We went down to 2% after the 18 month appointment.  I will try and keep our LO on 2% for at least his first 5 years.

I'm sticking with whole milk personally but that's because no matter what and how much my kids eat, they are always going back and forth on their weight but don't gain weight. It's best to stick with what works for you and what the pedi says.
