DD is nearly one. She has been FF since a few weeks old - always First milk, not Follow On. She eats really well, and likes water too. She has 3 or 4 x210ml bottles a day. Do I just switch to cow's milk or should I use toddler milk? I think that as long as she gets a balanced diet, cow's milk is all she needs, but stand to be corrected.
Also, do I just switch the milk over or do I need to introduce it gradually? She's had cow's milk in porridge since 6mo and has no problems with it.

I moved to cows milk at 12 months, I started by replacing daytime bottles with cows milk, then morning bottles and when the tub of formula was finished moved bedtime over

i'd start mixing bottles putting a little vows milk first and increase to a full bottle over a week say. if for no other reason so that she gets used to it, but will also give you time to spot any reactions - which probably won't happen.
We used cows milk, that toddler milk is just another way for them to get your money!
