nag decide na ako na pag nag 2yo na si baby ko ska ko na nalang papainomin ng non fat milk.

thanks sa mga nag share

pag ba first time ni baby sa fresh milk, di na ba kailangan imix yung formula niya? ano usually reaction sa stool ni baby? my son is 1year and 10months, gusto ko na rin sana bigyan ng fresh milk para yun ang isasabay ko sa breakfast niya.

^You should always mix formula according to the instructions on the package.

My pedia recommended fresh milk for my baby once he turns 1 (which is next week!)  

Anyone who did this as well?  Kasi parang I don't remember my mom giving me fresh milk when I was still a baby - I think I was given the usual Stage 3 formula..

[grumpybear]

^That is common practice in the US because it is assumed that the child gets a healthy, balanced diet of solids. If a child is eating healthy, formula really is not necessary.
My 3y.o. was introduced to whole milk shortly after he turned one. At that point his diet consisted of healthy solids, breastmilk and whole milk.
My son has never had a drop of formula.

my son is 2yrs old.  he doesn't like the formula milk. i still am breastfeeding him and he started drinking fresh milk before turning 1yr old.

^^Here in Europe as well. It is already advisable for a child to have fresh milk as soon as they turn 1 year old. The babies already have a balanced diet as soon as they turned 1 kasi.

My daughter's pedia recommended this as well. I'm actually excited to let her try fresh milk but ask ko lang, how do you bring it out with you without the milk spoiling? Do you keep small tetra packs? TIA

[wookies]

tetra packs ang binibili namin para maubos din nya agad. paglumalabas kami, once na nastart na nya inumin, unti-untiin ko na hanggang maubos nya para di masira.

[grumpybear]

I don't usually bring milk when I'm out and about with my son but if ever we do, I put it in a straw cup and bring an insulated lunch bag with us.

[mommygracee]

successful ang cowhead. i tried magnolia but he doesn't like it. i hope tuloy tuloy na

[rockstarmama]

I just switched my daughter to cow's milk yesterday and the only full cream milk I could find was Harvey Fresh. Ok naman so far except that she poops more now - maybe her body is still getting used to the change. I wanna get tetra packs since she doesn't like her milk cold - any brand suggestions here sa pinas? TIA

[rockstarmama]

Hi there,

I've been hearing so many good things about giving your toddler goat's milk. I wanna try this but my daughter is just getting used to Cow's milk. Has anyone tried giving their babies goat's milk instead of cow's milk or formula? Thanks

[darna88]

one of my fren says her nutrionist pedia recommend that to her,,

[darna88]

we all know that cows milk is more common for babies..but in our today's time many kinds of milk had come up like SOY AND GOATS MILK...my question to all momies out there who uses soy and goats milk

is there any special kinds of vitamins need for the baby to take yo when she's taking soy or goats milk? cause as far as i know compared to the 2 milk i mention cows milk had more FOLIC ACID contents or shall i say cows milk is more complete when inregards with the nutrient value..
