They can pasteurize the cow first now??" Ha. Maybe I should get more than four hours of sleep a night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270956 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 15:17:17 +0000 CakeLady 2270956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On weekend days, I offer 3 5oz straw cups during the day and a 6oz bottle at bedtime (gotta figure out how to be totally done with bottles soon) - DS probably drinks 16-18oz a day. He's almost 15mos.</p> <p>ETA: he goes to daycare during the week and gets two servings of milk there, not sure if he drinks it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270953 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 15:12:36 +0000 coopsmama 2270953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure how much but I let them drink several cups a day depending on if they want it. (They are one and two.) Probably 20-24 ounces a day. They also drink lots of water and my one year old is still nursing. They also eat a lot of food.</p> <p>They drink raw whole milk from the family cow. Interestingly enough neither of my kids will drink milk anymore unless it's raw from a pastured cow. They will try it but refuse more than an initial sip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270952 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 15:06:40 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2270952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 21 month old drink 2-4 oz a couple times a week.

He's allergic. The two year old gets almond milk with his cereal and the one year old gets breast milk still. I just haven't bothered introducing cow's milk to him yet. I don't want to worry about keeping sippy cups straight and as long as he still drinks BM, why buy it, you know? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270940 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 14:37:04 +0000 Pumuckl 2270940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends a little on how much we let him have. At least 8oz a day though and most days it's twice that amount. (He's 28m). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270938 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 14:35:40 +0000 regberadaisy 2270938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to limit it only at meal times otherwise she doesn't drink enough water.

He doesn't hate it but prefers water. Dr says it's fine but to make sure he gets 1/2 hour of sun w/o sunscreen so he gets vitamin D. We rarely put sunscreen on him so I'm sure he's fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270756 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 09:03:22 +0000 jetsa 2270756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 16-20 oz WCM at 23 months. He gets a cup in the mornings and one before bed. If he wakes up in a bad mood after nap he gets a 1/2 cup then. He'd drink it all day and not eat if we'd allow it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270755 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 09:03:18 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2270755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 8oz a day.

They started wcm on bottles and were having 24 oz a day. Then I took the bottles away except for bedtime and they started nursing constantly. They maybe take 8 oz a day of wcm out of sippies now. I'm hoping that will increase a little as I try to pare down the nursing sessions again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270734 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 08:35:21 +0000 clover 2270734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 years old and has 2% milk everyday, 10oz with breakfast and 7oz to finish up dinner or just after dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270733 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 08:34:18 +0000 chopsuey 2270733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They each drink around 6 ounces of WCM every day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270731 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 08:31:55 +0000 Andrea 2270731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zero.

He drinks his milk from his cereal bowl most mornings. And then he usually drinks a cup with dinner (regular or chocolate). Daycare sometimes gives milk with meals, but it varies. He still drinks whole milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-milk-does-your-toddler-drink#post-2270718 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 08:13:03 +0000 autumnlove 2270718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3 year old drinks milk a few times a week and my 2 year old takes 4-6 ounces with every meal.
