anyone not drinking cow milk?
« on: August 13, 2005, 01:35:33 am »
Hi,
 I am not 100% on giving DD cow milk. I am a soy milk drinker and i am about ready to wean her.
Did anyone not wean to cow milk? What did you give your lo? She likes soy milk. I ge the unsweetened kind, it has more fat in it. If I go th ecow milk route I will use orgainc milk.

We are soy milk drinkers here.  DS likes it.  We did wean him to cow's milk at 12 months, but he was lactose intolerant.  Our doctor suggested Lactaid brand, and it worked well.  But I decided to just go with soy.  No problems at all.  Silk makes an Enriched milk that I give John.  It has more vitemins and stuff added.

I gave ds some fresh milk before, and he seemed to like them quite a bit.  Only problem was that it gave him phlegm, so I quit it quite promptly and decided to continue with his follow-on formula.
