Hello everyone,
I am in the process of weaning my 1 year old son and am concerned about him getting enough cow's milk. I have read that he needs 16 oz per day but can't seem to figure out how to fit this in to his routine. :? Here is his current schedule:
6am Breast milk (will stop at the end of January)
7am Breakfast- solids
8am-9:30am nap
10:30am Snack with water
12:30-2:30 Breast milk before nap (some days will only take 1 side)
2:30pm Lunch (usually yogurt plus other items) with water
5:30pm Dinner with milk in sippy cup
6:15pm Bedtime
10pm Bottle of breastmilk (5 oz) (will stop in January, too)
I know he is quite old to still be getting a "dreamfeed," but I have continued this so that he can meet his milk quota for the day. I would like to stop this in January as well but I also don't want to get in the habit of giving him a bottle of milk before bed. (Seems he is pretty much unaware of it at 10pm

but atleast he is taking the milk)
Once I stop breastfeeding him am I supposed to just substitute cow's milk instead of the water at his meal periods? What if he won't drink it? Due to his age, I really don't want to start to offer bottles during the day. Any ideas?

I should also mention that he sleeps 12 hours at night. (4 before the dreamfeed and 8 after) Thanks for your help!
