Follow on as a one off for 2 year old

[JulieF]

Probably not strictly relevant to this board but I've run out of milk!

Dd aged 2 and a half will not go to bed without a drink and will also want it on her weetabix in the morning.

Do I have to traipse dd and ds down to the shop or should I give her a couple of the bounty box samples of follow on I have. (They were previously destined for the bin).

At aged 6 months follow on made her scream with tummy ache but I assume she'd be OK now even if it is a bit sugary etc?

can't see there being a problem.i gave ds follow on until he was 2 anyway as he didn't eat a lot and it was a way of ensuring his iron levels.

I took the ready made cartons of follow on milk with us on the long haul flight to NZ from the UK when DS was 2 because carrying bottles of normal cow's milk on a 40 hour journey (incl. hotel stops etc) was not really an option!
He was fine!

In the end she went to bed without her milk OK and I used the folow on to make her breakfast with before going to Asda.

Actually what never occured to me was that I could have given her ebm. I could then at least say that dd had in her life receved some breastmilk!
