So DS is 1 year old in a few days and was just wondering how all you FF'ing mommas made the switch and when. Did you make bottles part formula part milk and gradually up the milk content or just go cold turkey.

DS is almost 25lbs and eats really well so I am not particularly wooried about needing the extra calories/nutrients from the formula as we have a pretty well rounded diet.

Just thought I would see how you all did itas this is my first LO. Going gradual seems logical to me, but I am still curious. TIA, Tracy

I did go gradual but just to use up the rest of our formula. I was worried it would be a struggle, but DD didn't really care at all. You could just see if he'll drink the milk, and if he will just switch over. DD drank it just fine :)

i have given him a cup or two and he doesn't seem to mind really, I was just worried it might bug him on a regular basis (not sure why I think that) I have a 1/2 can of formula left so I will probably go gradual till the formula is done and only buy more formula if he has issues.
Thanks momma!
