None of mine have ever had toddler milk and all of them swapped straight to cows milk when they were about 12-13mths and we never had a problem.
I agree toddler milk is a sugary gimmick...if you are worried about your toddler's nutritional intake something like pentivite would be more beneficial but most toddlers don't need it.
Except for my youngest who is still on formula at 15 mths due to weight issues.
If you're worried about using whole cows milk and want something a little nutritionally richer you can use goats milk. Goats milk is the closest milk to breastmilk out of all the non-human milk options. It's higher in protein, calcium, and lower in fat, better for the heart and easier to digest.
hmmm, well i don't think i started giving my kids normal milk until they were 2, unless it was on cereal....before that i put them on toddler milk.....but everyone else seems to think it's fine, so i don't know...each to their own?
