I introduced it in food at 6 months. As a drink, at 1yo.

Same. In foods at 6 months and then in place of other milk feeds from roughly a year (technically we started to offer small amounts from 11 months, to give her time to adjust, then switched completely at 12 months).

Same here - 6mo and just before a year old.

We ran out of formula and I really objected to buying another box a week or so before his first bday, so I just gave him a bottle of cow's milk. There were no issues at all, he was quite happy and had had cow's milk ever since.

DS is nearly a year and I've tried introducing it as a drink now. He won't take it though. Has always refused anything but breastmilk or water.

Any tips?
I've tried warming it, room temp and freezing cold from fridge but he just keeps spitting it back out. Wondering if I should get a different type of beaker so he knows it's his milk beaker as sometimes I think he does it as he is expecting water.

A friend had this same problem @here. She just made sure he always had a bowl of cereal with milk in it for breakfast and gave him water the rest of the time, (he self weaned from bf at about 1yo).

Are you planning on stopping Bfing? If not, there is absolutely no reason to offer Cow’s Milk as a drink. If yiu are thinking of stopping, both of mine had about 2 weeks after they’d stopped before they’d touch Cow’s Milk. Things you can try are warning it, giving semi skimmed at first to get them used to the taste and adding Nesquik or vanilla essence.
