He can't have cows milk, he sit sure about straight soy milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257644 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 20:41:46 +0000 MaisyMay 1257644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are using the free samples that we received in the mail, but don't plan on buying any. LO is already getting cow's milk at 11 months, supplemented w/ formula. Our plan is to keep giving her less formula and more milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257540 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 20:07:18 +0000 wheres_c 1257540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked 3 weeks ago on here if anyone had used it or not.<br /> We decided to try it.<br /> My LO hasn't quite transitioned to cows milk....but has never had an issue with formula. He is 3 days away from being one.</p> <p>We started a week ago on the "toddler transitions" formula....one bottle when he wakes up, and sometimes one when he goes to bed. He wakes up soooo hungry and this helps.</p> <p>We plan on only using it for a few months until we fully transition to cows milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257527 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:59:44 +0000 rachiecakes 1257527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: we haven't tried it but DS is beyond picky when it comes to eating these days. I'm going to ask the pediatrician about supplements at his two year appointment coming up in a couple weeks. We're also vegetarians, so I worry about him missing out on protein and iron when his food groups are pasta, bananas and yogurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257525 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:57:25 +0000 pl0508 1257525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlecasita1122: @Mrs. Yoyo: was totally thinking it was a gimmick for formula companies to make more money !!! </p> <p>@Katrocap: I got some too ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257508 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:51:39 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 1257508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gimmick except in special cases! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257503 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:51:01 +0000 littlecasita1122 1257503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel it's just a way for formula companies to try and get as much money from you while they still can. I guess I'm not educated about the nutritional value of it, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257495 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:46:58 +0000 Katrocap 1257495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got free samples of that in the mail and was curious (i.e. weirded out) by it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257485 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:43:14 +0000 regberadaisy 1257485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nay, I have not heard favorable things. And personally do not feel my daughter's diet needed it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257480 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:40:07 +0000 MrsF 1257480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything I've read says that most babies shouldn't have any need for formula after 1. I suppose that allergies or nutritional deficiencies would change things but I wouldn't give it unless recommended by a Dr. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257477 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:37:51 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1257477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any real experience, so take this with a grain of salt. We spent a few weeks with my 2yo niece who constantly drinks it. It seems to just be prolonging her awful diet of rice, beans, and cookies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-formula-yay-or-nay#post-1257384 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 18:37:03 +0000 pl0508 1257384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just saw a commercial for this. I guess as a supplement to cows milk ? Or a replacement ? Supposedly for the DHA ? </p>
