Whole milk

My daughter is 11 months old
I'm just wondering has anyone started giving whole milk for a bottle. She eats all day long and refusing formula but drinks whole milk as she has it in nursery with her food.
Do you think I would be making a bad decision to put her on whole milk now?

Yes. I started my youngest on whole milk at 11 months. He was EBF and self weaned at 11 months. I didn't want to start formula so just went onto milk. DS took to it and still loves his milk.

Yep, DD had whole cows milk from 11 months.

She’d always refused formula, and so she had cows milk when I went back to work.

Thank you so much.
Thought I was doing something bad as they say wait till they are one but just felt like she needed something extra. Can I ask did you just put straight onto whole milk or wean slowly?

Nope just straight onto blue milk, there might have been a week where he had a few boob feeds intermingled with a bottle of milk but that was it.
