formula milk

Hi everyone My lo is 4 yrs old this year. I've stopped giving her formula since last year. Someone told me it is not good. And I should continue giving the formula milk as it is good for calcium and it will help my lo grow fatter. Currently my lo will only drink about 120mls of fresh or full cream milk everyday. I am personally on the thinner side and it does reflect on my lo. What are your opinions?

I'm not sure if some mummies are aware that formula milk for 1 year old and above(stage 3 onwards) is just a marketing gimmick. Nutrients in it gets lesser and more in sugar instead that's why the price is usually cheaper than newborn formula milk. After 1 year old, source of nutrients should focus more on foods they eat especially the veggies and fruits. You can start giving your LO fresh milk instead.
