Hi all
My nearly 23 month old still has Nutramigen twice a day. I have been advised by GP and dietician that she doesn't need it anymore and can get calcium etc through an adequate diet, so I want to wean her off of it by 2 yrs.
My concern is that she doesn't seem to like any of the alternatives. The only milk she will drink is the soy milk made for toddlers that is quite sweet, but it gives her a tummy ache. We have tried coconut milk (she has it on her cereal but won't drink it) and oat milk (she really hates it) with no luck. Almond milk is not an option as she has a nut allergy.
Those of you with tots who have dairy allergy - do you worry about giving them a milk alternative if they don't like it?? Just let them have water instead, or keep persisting?? How have you managed to wean them on to a new "milk" after a prescription formula?
Thanks!!
