LO just turned one a couple of weeks ago. He was on 3 bottles of formula day, plus 3 small meals. I dropped his afternoon bottle (replaced with a snack of yoghurt and fruit).
But the other two bottles? I know I don't have to keep him on formula any more, but (for some reason) I'm really not keen on giving him 7oz of cows milk twice a day. I know there are also other alternatives (rice milk etc), but do I need to give him milk at all now he's one?
This morning he had water in a sippy cup and a massive bowl of porridge (bigger than he would've had as he hadn't had a bottle), and now seems really content.
He has cows milk with his breakfast, plus yoghurt and cheese throughout the day, and eats a wide variety of foods at the moment, so I'm not worried about his diet suffering. Why can't I just give him water?
