Morning ladies
I will be starting to move my little girl onto cows milk next month at 11 months. I know the recommended age is 1 years but we will be lambing on our farm next month and I will be working while my mum has Lo during the day and I really don't want her to have formula so I'm starting a little early
Has anyone any tips on how to transition?
With meals she will have a couple of sips of water from a cup but she never has much. I'm also worried that she still has a night feed and she's usually half asleep and I can't imagine being able to get her to drink out of a cup without choking - she will not drink from a bottle
I mean I can bf her at night but I'd like her practiced as I've also got a couple of weddings this summer where she will be staying overnight elsewhere
How much cows milk should she be having?
I went to my local bf support group when Lo was tiny and found it useless so I don't want to ask there
