I recently took Michaela for her check up and was told that she was overweight - she weighs 14kg at 17 months. She is definitely not fat, but is quite stocky. She's incredibly active during the day and honestly does not sit still for a minute.
She eats very healthy solids, albeit very little, but absolutely loves her Formula - she still has two to three 175ml bottles a day. i have tried transitioniing her from Formula to cows milk, but she flatly refuses it, even when i add Milo (fortified choc drink) to it - she must be the only toddler i know who doesn't like Milo!
I've now been advised to take her off the Formula completely so that she can lose a bit of weight - (the doc was concerned about diabetes and other weight related problems). I'm really not sure what to do now as i tried cows milk again, and she refused to drink it, i also tried soy, to no avail!
Any words of wisdom anybody?
