What do you do when you stop giving prescription milk?

[Pioneer]

DS has been on Nutramigen milk since 8 weeks old - he is now 2.1yrs. I was told to keep giving it to him until he was 2 - but I'm unsure what to do now.

I think he has semi-outgrown his milk intolerance ie, he can eat cheese, ice-cream, chocolate etc in moderation, but when I try to give him milk in a cup or bottle he spits it out. I have tried several times with cows milk, and with rice and soya milk but he won't touch it.

How can I give him the nutrients he needs if he won't touch it?

my SIL gave my Dn enriched oat milk on his cereal but he is not really a milk drinker.

By 2 my DS1 (Bf to 6 months, formula to 1 year) didn't have much milk in his diet. Its not necessary - he was eating normal food enough nutrients in that. If you really want him to drink oat milk then do the watering down trick eg take the milk he knows and over a period of weeks do 1oz and 6oz etc.

Thanks - I might try that.

I just assumed they were meant to get a certain amount of milk at that age, however he does eat a good balanced diet so hopefully he will get enough nutrients from that.

Rice milk not good because of arsenic SIL told me. Soya milk not good as he might become allergic to that too.

Thanks - I think it was actually Oatly that I tried - not rice milk - so I will try it again, or the watering down trick.

OOO I was wondering this.

DD2 is using Cow&Gate pepti jnr, as it was all she could tolerate after stopping bring at 9 months. Apparently it's semi-elemental and very very hydrolized. I think that means it isn't milk anymore

She has an appaling diet and we rely on the formula for her nutrition. She has oat milk on her breakfast readybrek though.

SHe has a consultant and a dietician, but there advice is to feed her wholesome food and reduce her bottles.
Unless I can do that through a nose tube I'm stuck, because I cannot get it in her mouth
