MummaBear I get you there, I was really bad at expressing.  It would take me then entire day to get 50mLs for her cereal in the morning, sometimes I didn't get that, it was more like 20 so I had to use boiled water and milk mixed together.  It would have taken me a week to get 200mLs. http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/427688/how-do-i-make-the-change-from-breastmilk-to-cows-for-one-year-old//#427803 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/427688/how-do-i-make-the-change-from-breastmilk-to-cows-for-one-year-old//#427803 Wed, 27 Jun 2007 05:13:23 -0700 Re: How do I make the change from breastmilk to cows for one year old?

Hi Dee,

My twins were on formula but this is how I changed them over as I had the same problems! 

With your breastmilk (say 200ml), place say 175ml of breastmilk and 25ml of cows milk mixed up for 3 days to see how it goes.  If all is ok, then use 150ml breastmilk and 50ml cows milk mixed up for 3 days etc.  Then 125ml breastmilk and 75ml cows mixed up etc etc and just keeping following the pattern.  Hopefully by the end of the month, he/she should be on cows milk & hopefully onto 1-2 bottles a day!

The problem I had when converting to cows milk which does sometimes happen with children is that the cows milk can make them constipated which is what happened with my twin 1 but all worked out in the end.   

Good luck
