Been an EP mum for close to 14mths. Just dropped a pump cos LO is eating more solids now and now she decided to reject one of her formula feeds! Have tried nan, Bellamy's. I don't think my bm will be able to sustain her long! SOS! Currently she has 2 solid feeds, 3 milk feed and probably 1-2 snacks in between. Any other mummies facing same problem? I am very worried that I am drying up slowly and she's rejecting alternative milk! Any suggestions / advice pls? Thanks!!

After 1 year old, milk is no longer the main source of nutrients so you can slowly cut the intake down :) If you'd still like to offer milk, you can consider fresh milk instead - you can go for cow's milk (most economical), goat's milk (said to be better than cow's but more expensive) or plant-based like almond/soy if LO has cow's milk allergy/dairy intolerance :) It's preferred to give those found in chilled section of supermarkets like HL, Marigold, Meiji etc. I'm giving my son Farmhouse :) Make sure it's pasteurized and full cream milk! You can start by replacing a feed that LO is least likely to fuss about milk, and you can warm it up the same way as BM :)
