All I can offer for advice is that I've heard the recommendations are not to put a child under one year on cow's milk. I don't know how old Nicole is? But if she's at least a year old I wouldn't see a problem with it!

I agree with the above post.

Also i kept my oldest on formula for a while longer because he didnt eat a great deal and so therefore relied on his bottles of milk a bit more than my younger children, I think cows milk is only good as a supplement not if quite a bit of their diet is still milk, not sure that even makes sense? But hope ykwim.

I was given the OK to put Grady on homo milk a month ago.
My doctor said it all depends on the baby, and how well they've gained weight, if they are eating properly, etc.
