Transition from formula to cows milk

Baby is going to be one in 2 weeks and I just wanted some advice. He is on Kendamil formula now, what’s the easiest transition and for how long do you do it? Half formula and half full fat milk or straight to full fat milk?

Did your baby have any issues, upset stomach etc. after starting cows milk?

Thank you in advance 👍🏻

I remember being worried about this and assuming my daughter would reject cow's milk but I just gave her the same amount of 100% cow's milk in her usual bottle and she took it no problem! Might be different for other babies and I was just lucky but it was definitely less of an issue than I thought it would be!

Anyone else?

I didn't get round to converting to cows milk and she still has formula at 2.5 years old! Only one bottle at bedtime though...

From 11 months I gave half formula half full fat milk. From 12 months only full fat. There was no problem at all with the transition.
However, her poo became pale for a few days but I read that is normal.
