Tips for transitioning my 1 yr son from formula to whole milk. I have been doing two or three ounces of whole milk sometimes and it’s like he knows. He was a premie and we did stay a month in NICU with a feeding tube,gravity feedings,side feedings and he does gave GERD. TIA.

Do you mix the milk with the formula or do you give it to him plain when he gets it? My son was also preemie and had a gastro tube and all that… i found it easier to ween him off if I’d mix the milk Into the formula bottle and slowly work the formula out that way. Seemed to make less of a difference compared to giving them a formula bottle and then a plain milk bottle… it could be that the formula is “sweeter” to them then milk is… plus milk is typically super cold and formula also isn’t typically given super cold either. Hope any of this helps!
