How often does you LO drink milk?

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Im in the process of weaning from the bottle, and we are down to once a day, right before bed. Im transitioning into a sippy instead of a bottle and she is a rockstar with it. She loves her sippy and drinks water all day long.

My only question: should I be giving her milk in her sippy throughout the day for the extra calcium?

    We do 8oz in the morning and at night.  So 16oz total unless he doesn't finish it all.  Pedi said that was perfect since he's on the bigger side.

    She gets whole milk 3 times a day, about 18-20 oz.

    Since my Dr says 24oz max and I've heard others say that their Dr recommends something around 16oz, that's really only enough for 2 sippy's full. We usually do morning and night.

    We give her milk with breakfast, lunch, and dinner... 4-6oz, sometimes she drinks it, sometimes she doesn't. We also give her water with meals if she isn't drinking the milk, and throughout the day.

    She gets an 8oz in the morning and another 8oz at night. Throughout the day she has juice though.

    We're not fully to milk, but when we are, I'll be giving it in sippys/cups like a bottle - i.e. with meals / at certain times, NOT to suck on all day long.

    We were just at the pedi for my son's 18 mo appt and he recommended 16-24 oz/day at this age. DS will only drink about 2-4 oz at at time so to get this amount of milk in him I have to offer it to him about 6-8 times a day.  I feel like all I do is push milk on him all day.  I wouldn't worry so much about it but he's on the small side and doesn't eat a ton of solids so he really needs the extra calories from milk.
