Hi mummy! I have some friends who transit to cow's milk after their babies are older than 1 year old. This is also quite common in the states. I think all three options (formula, cow's milk and goat's milk) are good for your child (but nothing beats breast milk I suppose). For cow's milk, you can refer to this useful article to help determine which kind would be good for your baby: http://singaporebaby.com/cows-milk-singapore-truth-exposed/#sthash.IleMwdXS.dpuf Nutrition profile wise, I think cow's and goat's milk are good sources of calcium. If I were you, I would keep an open mind for formula if baby is not taking solids well. Some of my friends mentioned that they chose formula over cow's/goat's milk as their children are picky eaters and may not be getting a good mix of nutrients. Formula offer an "easy" solution since the nutrition required for their children's development are included in the formula. Hope this helps.
