DS is now 12 months. He has three formula bottles a day - 7oz in each (although his first bottle is actually only 4 oz as I put around 3 oz of full fat cows milk in his weetabix). Should I start giving him 'growing up' milk? Or shoudl he be only on cow's milk now? Also, should he be drinking his milk out of a beaker now rather than a bottle?

right he should be haivng a pint of milk (whichever) you could put him on growing up milk (a lot of old tosh if you ask me, another way for them to make money) or change him to cows milk as he's now old enough. as for beaker vs bottle if he will take milk out of a beaker then thats brill if not its not the end of the world, my dd was still having her milk (only 1 7oz bottle a day) in a bottle at 18 month as she wouldnt drink it any other way. now she drinks it from a cup with a straw, it just took a bigger transition, she wouldnt drink milk from a beaker as she'd only had juice from a beaker. just follow his lead! and dont worry too much, its not an exact science!
