My DS has just turned 1 and so I need to switch from formula to cows milk.
At the moment he’s having 3 bottles of formula a day - one when he wakes, one after lunch and one before bed. The total amount is about 500ml.
How do I stop giving him formula and move onto cows milk - can I just make a straight switch?
Other questions:
- Do you warm up the cows milk or give it straight from the fridge?
- Do I continue giving him milk from a bottle when he switches to cows milk and do these still need to be sterilized? Or should he drop the bottles and switch to a cup like this one?

- How much cows milk should he be having per day and should he have it 3 times? Or do I drop one of the milk feeds altogether (maybe the lunchtime one?) and just do morning and night?
- Should he have full fat milk (not semi skimmed?)
Thanks.
