Cows milk at 10 months

[daiseyduck]

Morning all, my baby is 10 and a half months. Recently they have total aversion to formula, they have been formula fed since birth never BF. I cannot get more than 8-10oz a day down them & even then it's more or less forced.

They love their food and eat 3 meals a day plus snacks and water.

Can I introduce cows milk instead of their formula? I think they are ready and would take to that more.

Has anyone else has similar with their babies?

I did to my children at 11 months and all was well, I’vea 6 month old and will around 10 months for him

If you do, make sure you give a multivitamin drop/liquid as well.

I started mine on his toddler soya at 11 months and he still has it now at nearly 3. Definitely put a vitamin drop in it though because he won't be getting all the vitamins he normally gets from the formula

I had this issue with my first baby who is now 27 years old.
Totally breast fed until 6 months and went off the breast overnight. Would arch her back away and carry on like she was being murdered. Tried every formula going and she again refused. Was feeling pretty desperate. Resorted to cows milk.

I did worry it would store up some gut issues. As a teen she was misdiagnosed with IBS. Took Buscapan for a couple of years and then had an appendicitis. Had the appendix out and no longer took the meds.

She now hardly has any milk but eats a lot of cheese.
