My 3 year old drinks milk a few times a week and my 2 year old takes 4-6 ounces with every meal. They drink 2% cows milk.
-
D is 2.5. 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.
-
LO1 (4) drinks almond milk at breakfast and dinner. The amount varies on his mood and thirst. LO2 (almost 2) drinks hemp milk and refuses to drink water.
-
Zero. She doesn't like it!
-
They each drink around 6 ounces of WCM every day.
-
2 years old and has 2% milk everyday, 10oz with breakfast and 7oz to finish up dinner or just after dinner.
-
I'm trying to get them taking more. 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!
-
Maybe 8oz a day. She's 2.5 and drinking WCM.
-
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
-
Maybe 6 oz a day of 2%. 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.
-
She doesn't drink milk, but she has cheese everyday. We're thinking about reintroducing almond milk.
-
My 2.5 yo has between 4 and 8 oz of WCM a day.
-
She's two and drinks about 16oz of 2% daily. She'd drink a ton more if we let her.
-
My almost 3 year old drinks about 5 oz a couple of times a week. She used to get it at every meal between 1-2 years old and at around 2 we started tapering down just because it seems to fill her up.
-
I try to limit it only at meal times otherwise she doesn't drink enough water. She'll have milk all day long if I let her!
-
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).
-
None. 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?
-
None. Milk allergy and won't drink any milk alternatives. She just has water and apple juice.
-
My almost 3 year old drinks 28-30 ounces of soy milk a day on average. He would drink more if I let him.
My 18 month old prefers no milk except breast milk and will only take breast milk straight from the tap.
-
My 21 month old drink 2-4 oz a couple times a week. She doesn't really like it, but will occasionally drink some if we offer.
-
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.
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.
-
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.
ETA: he goes to daycare during the week and gets two servings of milk there, not sure if he drinks it.
-
@coopsmama: I accidentally read "pastured" cow as "pasteurized cow" and for a second thought, "wow! They can pasteurize the cow first now??" Ha. Maybe I should get more than four hours of sleep a night.
-
Not very much. Maybe 12 oz for each of them over the course of a week. They are 3 and 21 months.
-
My 2.5-year-old drinks a TON of whole milk every day-- maybe 20 oz? He hasn't been eating much and he's skinny, so we don't discourage him!
-
1 cup of warm milk per day, and other dairy is a small yoghurt and a few small pieces of cheese.
-
She is 15 months old and maybe drinks 1-2 oz a day? I offer it with every meal, but she just doesn't like it. Thinking of maybe trying almond milk.
-
23 months old and she drinks around 16oz per day.
-
My 19 month old gets it at every meal but hardly ever drinks it and usually requests water instead.
-
My 20 month old gets three sippy cups of milk a day. The boy looooves his milk and would drink more if I let him.
