Cow’s Milk

cow's milk

We’re less than a week away from her first birthday so I thought I’d start transitioning her to cow’s milk this week.  So, today we went to Whole Foods to buy some organic whole milk and I made a bottle with 1/4 cow’s milk and 3/4 breastmilk to see how she’s do.  Not sure if she just wasn’t hungry or if it tasted funny but it was quite a struggle to get 2 ounces down while she can usually take 5 ounces of breastmilk in just a few minutes.  An hour later she was hungry again so I gave her an ounce of just straight cow’s milk and she drank it faster and with less fussiness.  Maybe the ratio I made just tastes like weird breastmilk and the straight cow’s milk is just something new to her.  Not sure what my plan will be for tomorrow but we’re working toward getting her to all cow’s milk in the next couple weeks.  I hope her tummy is ready for it!!
