Hi mum, when do you stop giving formula milk to your lo? Is it necessary to give milk until stage 4?

Most of my friends started introducing their babies to regular cow milk after their babies are past one year year old and gradually stopped formula from then on. There are some who continue to breastfeed exclusively till their babies wanted to wean off and they too, switched to regular cow's milk. Generally, as long as your baby is getting the adequate amount of nutrients, you can try stopping formula anytime you deem fit. I do have a couple of friends who are giving their children toddler formula, but that is because their children preferred the taste of formula (and they do not mind the cost) as compared to regular milk. Therefore, they moved on to toddler formula to ensure that their little ones could benefit from the balanced nutritional profile.
