Ok I hope this is not a dumb question but what is junior milk?

Everyone is giving me a hard time that the 1 year mark is looming

I always said I would start weaning at 1 year but I just dont think I can hehe]]> Wed, 23 Jul 2008 11:13:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=447198&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#447198 <![CDATA[Cow’s milk at 1 year : I started Coop on it yesterday....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=447194&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#447194 Author: sparkle

I started Coop on it yesterday. 3 weeks shy of turning one, however, circumstance ditates!

I work tuesdays, so instead of havng his BF at lunch he had about 100ml of that Junior Milk. Grandma said he loved it!

I had been giving him spoonfuls of my milk from my cereal for the past few weeks after he would moan and try and pull my bowl away from me

I still BF morning, tea time and once during the night, so he's getting enough from me.

I was planning on switching to cows milk after Briahna turned one. But someone told me its not actually that much cheaper than formula. so i dont know. Whichever is cheaper ill go with.

Ella still has 3 bf a day, even through I got by Plunket that when she reaches 1 to drop it down to 2.....the feed I plan to eventually drop would be the midday one, but she is definitely not ready to drop it yet.

Jack went straight from bf to cows milk at about 1yr. I started by giving him a drink of cows milk but he wasn't fussed/didn't drink much so now he only drinks water. He gets his calcium from milk with porridge, yoghurt each night with dinner and cheese, cottage cheese at lunch]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 12:55:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446268&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446268 <![CDATA[Cow’s milk at 1 year : yeah i didnt want to move miss1...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446129&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446129 Author: mrshouse

yeah i didnt want to move miss1 onto cows milk either but the plunket nurse said it would be cheaper and easier......and her digestive system is developed enough to have it.but i have to say having to buy milk every day or 2nd day to begin with wasnt really panning out as cheaper.........(esp if we made porridge that week) .but now she only has 1 bottle inda morning and 1 at night and it was a good incentive for us to start making her drink water and juice more...................we just switched her over....she didnt seem to notice...........]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 10:49:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446129&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446129 <![CDATA[Cow’s milk at 1 year : That is a good point Stacey.

Yeah, Daniel still has 3 bottles a day and I worked out that the price of forumla per litre is a teeny less than the cost of milk per litre so really why switch? He likes his formula and it doesn't go off, it doesn't take up lots of room in our fridge. It's just convenient. I'm sure eventually we will move to cows milk but not in a hurry. I do stock up on formula when I see it on special which helps.. whereas I never see milk on special]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 10:11:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446104&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446104 <![CDATA[Cow’s milk at 1 year : It does depend on how many bottles...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446096&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446096 Author: mummy_becks

It does depend on how many bottles a day baby is having. Josh is only having 2 bottles a day so cows milk works out cheaper for us (and he still has about 50mls of water mixed in the milk). I have the odd formula packet floating about and us them when we travel.

Andrew went onto cows milk at 15 months and Josh at 12 1/2 months.

I think with R & G I pretty much put them onto cow's milk around 13 months.  But if we were traveling for the day, I'd take formula with me, so the milk wouldn't go off in the car.  Even up til they were 2 yrs old and still had a bottle, I'd do that.

 

edited to add: oh & I think I just put them straight onto cow's milk, didn't ease them into it, and they were fine with that.

Did you change your baby over to cow's milk at 1 year or leave them on formula for a while.    For those that did change it over was it simply formula one day, cows milk the next or do you ease them on to it?]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 09:34:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19360&PID=446056&title=cows-milk-at-1-year#446056
