My pumping supply was dwindling by then anyway. So I stopped pumping at work and we switched to WCM. I still nursed mornings, evenings and weekends. The transition went smoothly, and now I have a 20mo who wears size 3T. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2362117 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 20:31:17 +0000 MamaChin 2362117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10 months here too, she would only drink what her brother was drinking, so wcm in a straw cup from that point on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2361933 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:13:55 +0000 chopsuey 2361933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS went on nursing strike at 10.5 months so I pumped and supplemented with wcm and formula since my supply dropped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2361927 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:09:42 +0000 .twist. 2361927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumn865: Nope, we couldn't get him to drink formula.

He was getting lots of vitamins and nutrients from that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2361926 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:04:42 +0000 Rockies11 2361926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The new recommendations here is WCM at 9 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2361916 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 16:58:01 +0000 autumn865 2361916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: @BandDmommy: I've tried formula as well thinking I needed to supplement since she was refusing to BF/ nursing for such short periods but she hated it as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-introduce-cows-milk-early-than-one-year#post-2361881 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 16:26:52 +0000 avivoca 2361881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I introduced WCM at 11 months because my supply was not keeping up with her demand.
