Weaning / cows milk advice please

[Jacki]

Thanks Sam
I am inclined to give a milk feed during the day as well especially up to 12mths.
Unfortunately when I go back to work I won't be able to express.

I think the reasoning behind her advice was that babies/toddlers tend to fill up on milk too much when after 12 months it should all be about the solids. But most people I know still give their bubs milk well after 12 months.

Just to clarify - I asked her to day as I will not be seeing her again this year as I am off to Sydney for xmas so the advice she gave was not for now but for late December/very early January for when DS is about 11mths old

Confusing!!

That's not helpful!

I'd be inclined to try and get him to have 3 BF's now ish and then try and replace that middle BF with a bottle of cow's milk of formula.

I give DS 3 ff's breaky lunch and before bed. I give him water at morning and afternoon tea with fruit.

HTH

Good luck
