A. Yes, you can generally stop formula milk after your baby turns one year old and switch to regular whole cow's milk. Here are some points to consider: 1. Transition to Cow's Milk: Start introducing whole cow's milk gradually after your baby turns one. Aim for about 2-3 cups of milk per day. 2. Balanced Diet: Ensure your child continues to have a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins to meet their nutritional needs. 3. Monitor for Reactions: Keep an eye out for any allergic reactions or digestive issues when introducing cow's milk. If your child has a history of allergies, consult your pediatrician first. 4. Continue with Breastfeeding (if desired): If you are still breastfeeding and wish to continue, you can do so alongside regular milk. 5. Avoid Low-Fat Milk: Stick to whole milk for toddlers under two years old, as they need the extra fat for brain development. Transitioning to regular milk is a common practice, but ensure that it fits into a varied and nutritious diet for your child. If you have any concerns, consult your pediatrician.
