Milk. It sounds so simple, right? When to begin?
Babies younger than 1-year old desire the nutrients in breast milk or infant formula. Breastfed babies over 1 year may continue to nurse if wanted, but at that point, you can begin offering your little one whole milk. Why not low-fat or skim milk? Because most infants need the fat in whole milk to support normal growth and brain development during the active early toddler period.
Still breastfeeding is the best for baby, although your kid will be prepared for his first cup of whole milk once he is turned 1 year old. Younger babies cannot manage the extra minerals, protein, and sodium present in cow's milk, so it's best to wait until his first birthday.
You can transition your baby from breast milk or formula to whole baby milk by beginning to replace bottles of formula with bottles — or sippy cups — of milk. By age 1, your baby should be eating a number of other foods as well as drinking about 2-3 cups (480-720 milliliters) of milk each day.
If your baby was put on a soy or hypoallergenic formula for a milk allergy, speak to the doctor before introducing milk.
The way to Start
Introduce whole milk to Infant in a cup at dinner or during snack time. Most children like the taste of cow's milk and will appreciate the treat! "Offer it in a cup; I normally suggest with a straw," says Ari Brown, M.D., author of Baby 411 and Toddle 411. "And I don't recommend that kids have 24/7 access to a cup or sippy cup. Offer milk at meal and snack time."
How Much Does Baby Need?
Until age 3, kids only need 16 ounces of milk a day. Mom can offer both breast and cow's milk if desired, but a formula is not needed. "Only remember that children don't have to chug their milk like they did their bottles," says Ari Brown, M.D., author of Baby 411 and Toddle 411. "Milk is currently a drink, a complement to their solid-food meals. It really is not in itself a meal, like a bottle used to be. "
Nutritional Benefits
Milk features bone-building nutrients for example calcium, riboflavin, vitamin D, and protein. Though children can get these nutrients through other food, milk is the easiest way because it's so readily available.
