when did you girls switch from formula to
milk? and is there anything i should know
before doing it? i've heard to put a
teaspoon of corn syrup in the bottle...
or a couple scoops of formula...
other then that i have no clue about any
of this stuff

I was told to never mix milk with
formula.
I just gradually switch from formula to
milk. . . during the day .Casey would get
a milk bottle and then at night for bed he
would get formula and it just got to the
point where he didn't want the formula
anymore.

in the states it is 12 months. could it be
different in canada?
sarah, your pediatrician should discuss
this with you. don't you go to regular
well-baby visits? here we go at 2 months,
4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months.

Once .oni had a milk cup, a week before
her birthday...she refused
her formula.
We were at her pawpaw's and he didn't have
formula so I gave her milk. she *loved*
it!!!!
Hopefully he'll like it too! I
,personally, think it tastes better than
formula! lol!!

Do you not have health visitors over
there? It must be different. Here we take
babies to a weighing clinic every week or
every other week, where their weight is
recorded by health visitors and they
always discuss with the mother how things
are going, answer any questions you have
about babies, and generally support you. I
found it really helpful when jay was a
baby. I think you can take them there
until they are 2yrs old, maybe go less
often once they reach 1yr.

Oni's dr. wanted to see her once a month.
Compared to others, that's very often.
WHen she made a year, he didn't want to
see her again until she was 15 months.
Which is odd for me! lol!
