    12 months here too. We were on holidays and I ran out of formula in our last night. I had planned to wean DD when we got home so saw no point in buying another tin of formula. She gulped it down without any issues and never had formula again

    12 months - as soon as the tin was finished, DD went straight onto cows milk

    12 and 13 months. We stopped bottles altogether and changed over to a straw cup for full cream cow's milk. Both of the girls were fine with it. I gave them both cow's milk in their cereal from 6 months though so it wasn't totally new. We didn't bother weaning. They weren't drinking much of the bottles anyway

    I've been transitioning Jagger over the last month BUT our change is to soy milk not cows'.

    I started by putting regular fresh soy milk on his weetbix & porridge first at about 10mths, then I have slowly replaced his afternoon feed each day with soy. Today we start replacing his morning feed too then at 12mths I'll go full time soy.

    Good luck with Miss Charlie!

    18 months here due to DS not being a great eater. It took us 4 days to move him from formula to goats milk (easier to digest) and he still loves his bottles!

    Umm, DD was only 10 months when we changed over. She refused the formula. I consulted a Dr and he said as long as she was eating 3 meals a day and was not having issues going to the toilet it was ok. I had to see him once a week for 2 weeks just to make sure she was ok
