Our 29 month old loves her food, especially dairy products. Most days she has whole milk on cereal, 1-2 portions of cheese and a kids fromage frais or some plain natural yogurt. I thought this was OK, but HV has suggested we switch to semi-skimmed milk, which is fine, but also to start giving her milk as a drink maybe 2-3 cups a day and to reduce her full fat dairy foods.
I don't really want to start giving her milk as a drink (she was breastfed so never had it) and can't see how we can stop giving her cheese or yogurt everyday without massive tantrums. Just wondering how much dairy other people's 2-3 year olds eat? Also, would your kids really drink 3 cups of milk in a day? Ours doesn't drink that much water...
