Dairy- i cant bring myself to give her any

[Jaycee]

Is there a reason for you not wanting to give it to DD?
Did you have any trouble with dairy with your DD1?
My DS was having dairy at that age and we had no problems what so ever.
Are you giving DD other solids?
Lots of questions, sorry, just something for you to think about

[Olive]

thanks GG!
DD1 had no issues with dairy!
we do a combo of BSL and spoon feeding with DD2, i sort of think the reason is that to me all she needs is breastmilk and why give her cows milk when i have milk, i do express some mornings for her cereal but not always

[Inanna]

Go with what you feel I say Olive! I was the same and still am. Imogen has no dairy - aside from yoghurt. I wouldn't have given her yoghurt at your DD age either.

She doesn't need it - so go with your feelings I say!

I hear what your saying Olive, I dont understand dairy really... especially when we have the best milk coming out of our own boobies. If your DD is fine without it then why bother?

[Pinny-mum]

I have not tried L yet either, have you tried it in cooking???

I had given DS cheese and maybe yoghurt at about this age but I couldn't bring myself to give him cow's milk. DP gives him cow's milk cause I went back to work part time at 11 mnths and it was like a replacement for 'boo' while I am not here.

I really hate giving him cow's milk, I do give it to him before his afternoon nap because it's become a sleep association

Oh hun, I've probably freaked you out

Seriously though, go with your gut. If it doesn't feel right, don't do it! After all the reading I've done on dairy, I feel that we have little need for it in our diets, and alot of it is not that healthy! Your little Miss M eats like a champion, I really don't think you need to stress about introducing dairy right now .
