I was never a fan of cows milk and when we offered her organic cows milk she hated it. after several tries she finally accepts almond millkso we are sticking to that, i think its healthier anyway regberadaisy on "Cows Milk or Alternative for Toddlers" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cows-milk-or-alternative-for-toddlers#post-751805 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 07:59:28 +0000 regberadaisy 751805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We will be transitioning her to low temp pasteurized, non homogenized milk from a local farm. Initially I was leaning towards raw milk but just can't make the leap. She occasionally has almond milk now through baked goods & cooking. heffalump on "Cows Milk or Alternative for Toddlers" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cows-milk-or-alternative-for-toddlers#post-751792 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 07:54:08 +0000 heffalump 751792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We use organic cow's milk.

She only has about 2 oz. per day right now as I'm trying to slowly wean her to drinking milk. She takes two 4 oz. cups of milk during the day, so I 3 oz of breast milk with 1 oz. of whole milk. Next week I'll do 2/2 of each and hopefully in a month she'll be drinking two 4oz. cups of milk. I've read Mrs. Bee's post and other posts about alternative milks and discussed this with my pediatrician and for now I'm not really happy with any of the alternatives so we do cows. This might change as I see how LO reacts to the milk.

Other popular alternatives include raw, unpasteurized cow's milk and goat's milk.

If something else, what and why? DD is about to turn one and I'm debating if I want to give her cows milk or something else. Just wondering about easy-ish alternatives and the pros/cons.
