Will my baby get a reaction to regular milk?

Question

my daughter is almost a year old she has one can of formula left and once shes done with that they say she should be drinking regular milk. but i was wondering do babies get any kind of reaction once they start drinking regular milk? and is it normal?

Answer 1

I think your baby will be fine.

Answer 2

Doctors recommend that you introduce milk between 10-13 months. They suggest giving your child a cup/bottle once for feedings instead of formula in order to judge their reactions. Reactions are a possibility, especially if lactose intolerance runs in your family. Be sure to try it first, then allow a few hours to judge the influence it has had on your daughter. Be sure to use Vitamin D (Whole Milk) and not the others. It has more calories in it than the other milks and will provide sufficient caloric intake. It will also relieve most constipation if there was any prior.

My son was 11 months when we switched him to whole milk.  He did fine with it. Once he started eating foods we switched him to 2% milk and haven't looked back since. He is 2 years old currently and is fine.

Answer 3

My son didn't, and we switched earlier than you. The best thing we noticed is he wasn't constipated again once he was off formula!

Answer 4

My baby didn't get a reaction to it, but she doesn't like it. She gets a funny look on her face and throws her cup. I even tried a bottle, but she wants nothing to do with it. I bought her the older baby formula instead.
