The impossible has happened and my former cows milk refusenik DD now LOVES the stuff and is only having 1 BF a day (to get to sleep at night...we are trying hard to drop this but that is another post...)

DD will happily knock back over a pint of cows milk a day given the chance but I am worried that she should not be having this much - please can anyone let me know what is recomended?

DD is BLW and a great eater although definitely eats less on days when on a milk binge.

Thanks in advance

a minimum of 350mls (approx 12oz) is recommended with anything between 12 and 20oz being ok. Both mine only had milk twice a day at that age - a cup of milk in the morning and at night.

my ds is 17 mths and has 9oz in the morning and 9 oz to go to bed but he drinks loads of milky tea too. i really dont think the is a limit on howmuch they should drink as long as they are still having some milk.
