I can't nurse my baby like I want to anymore and I can barely pump. I am thinking about transitioning him early due to these problems. I just don't want to do formula. What are the alternatives? He'll be a year old next month.

Definitely ask his pediatrician since I'm no doctor but you can give him solids a few meals and snacks with a variety of foods he'll eat. Breast milk goes way past the age of 1, even formula because they have toddlers formula but normally once a formula fed baby turns 1 its taken away and replaced with cows milk which I don't give my kids but breast milk and/or formula is needed the first 12 months of life at least.

@skyy12221, What do you give your kids to drink? I’m looking for ideas for when we get to that point.

@skyy12221 He only eats solids and nurses. He won't take baby food at all. I'm looking into an organic formula now. I just really don't want him on cow's milk. Work keeps me from being able to pump

@jessgarr- water, tea, 100% apple, grape, orange or pineapple juice watered down just enough for flavor and pedialyte and/or gatorade for sickness. Every now and then my 3 year old gets plain juice but not my 1 year old.

@junesmommy_15 I don't blame you for staying away from cows milks and my kids don't like baby food either. And you need to report your job that's illegal.

@junesmommy_15 I understand, you don't have to give juice if you don't want to. What about a smoothie? My kids love those too. I do fruit, avocado, and sometimes chia seeds and they drink it up!

@skyy12221 I may do that. I've tried smoothies for my oldest before just haven't done it in a while.

@junesmommy_15 don't have to be extravagant, take your time and do what works for you time wise and try to work it in your schedule.

You can buy holle goat milk formula or they sell a brand called "kabrita" it's a goat milk powder that you make the same way as formula. Goat milk has easier proteins to digest than cow if you're worried about that.
