Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

When did you stop giving LO formula?

My LO is completely uninterested in formula these days. I feel like I have to force her to finish her bottle. When did you start weaning over to whole milk and how much milk does your LO drink per day?

TIA!

  • between 11 months and a year....closer to the year mark though.
  • We started weaning at 11 months and had completely switched over at a year.  DD gets 24 OZ. Of whole milk a day, we give water the rest of the time if she is thirsty, or, 1 part apple juice 2 parts water.

  • I think we started milk at 11 months. But she wasn't ready to give up the formula at bed until 13 months? If she was ready at 11 I would have attempted.

  • We stopped probably around 13 months. Pedi said we could stop at a year, but said if we had a stash, it was fine to finish it off, which we did. Starting at a year, we gave her soy milk most of the day, and only a bottle of formula at night until we ran out of formula.
  • we were going ot at a year but we still had a can and a half left so we did a mix until it was gone. DS turned 1 in aug so it took us until mid October to be done with it.

  • I started switching out her bottles with sippys of milk one by one starting at 11 1/2 months.  Now she only gets one bottle a day - first thing in the morning.  I have tried several times to switch this last bottle with a sippy of milk but she just screams until she gets her bottle. Ugh...
  • DD still has it. She loves it! I mix it with the milk though. When this can is gone, I will stop giving it to her. Maybe. Embarrassed

  • DS is still on formula.  But he has Multiple Food Protein Intolerance.  He can't have milk or soy products.  He also is a terrible eater.  Until he can start eating better, he is on prescription formula.  The GI says at least 2 more months.
  • We are finishing up our last can of formula but LO couldn't care less if he gets milk or formula. When he is finished with this last bit of formula he will be getting 24oz. of whole milk a day.
  • We started transitioning at 11.5 months.  We did 3/4 formula 1/4 milk then 1/2 and 1/2 and 1/4 formula 3/4 milk until the formula ran out right around 12 months.
