I started weaning my daughter onto cows milk at about 10 months because she started refusing formula. I started by doing 1/4 cows milk and 3/4 formula and then gradually did more cows milk and by the time she was 11 months she was completely off formula. I can’t remember how many bottles a day she had 🤔 I think it was just the same as however many bottles of formula she would have been having at the time. By a year they aren’t so dependent on the milk and are having 3 meals a day so I think it’s just whatever works for you. Hope that helps! X

That’s really helpful yeah thank you so much :) I might start weaning then do a morning bottle on full fat milk and gradually change over ... she has 3 meals a day so that’s all good :) thanks again that’s great x

I started mixing cows milk with formula when he was 10 months, they're meant to have 2 servings of milk a day but my LO just has one. My LO has breakfast at 7, lunch at 10, snacks like fruit and cheese around at 2 and dinner at 5.

I was gonna do that mix the formula and cows milk until he eventually just had cows milk but my hv advised me not to as she said she'd never heard anyone do that before so each to there own but I never did and he wouldn't take the cows milk for a few weeks I gave in give him the formula for a week n tried again he eventually had it but would only have it if it was warm because the formula was always warm. Now he just downs it straight from the fridge so just takes abit of getn ust to. These been a time he's picked the babies bottle up and spat it out cos he doesn't like the formula anymore 😂 he now has 2 8oz's a day but he sometimes wants it for a nap time too but I think that's alls they need by then.

I mix breakfast with blue milk. I’m just going to do a switch instead of all the faffing about. Conor has a lot of dairy , yogurt, cheese. I’ve given him a drop of blue milk and he’s been fine xxx

I started with half formula and half cows milk only over a few days just to get her tummy used to it then just continued with the blue cows milk. Had no problems. I keep a tub of 1 - 2yr formula in the cupboard as a backup which still has yet to be opened (try to always have blue milk in the fridge constantly but theres been a few near misses where we've nearly ran out but havent thankfully 👌). Most babies I've known dont seem to mind the swap. Like @erincharlieconor said, maybe just try him with a little on its own just to be sure Xx
