Charlie drinks whole milk, so I was using that in my cereal for a while. But it's a lot of calories, so I switched to skim. For some reason, I couldn't deal with skim... so I decided to try soy milk for the first time in my life.
So far, it's better than skim (how is that possible, btw?). I guess I'll use it for my cereal for now. But I better lose 100 pounds, or I will have to switch back to real milk.
What kind of milk do you drink?

I drink either plain soy milk or almond milk. I really only have milk when I eat cereal though.

We drink 1%. Skim was too watery, and 2% tastes like butter to me.

Organic 1% since I found out I'm expecting. Before that just plain skim. I tried rice milk for a while too and liked it w/ cereal. I'm a WI girl so pretty serious about my milk! : )

2% I've been drinking a lot more cow's milk since I got pregnant. Prior to that, I mostly drank vanilla almond milk and only really drank it for smoothies.

Skim milk for me, I have tried to be sure to go to Organic when I was pregnant.

I normally use skim, but tried to switch to whole for TTC/first trimester. I can't STAND whole milk. So I'm on 2% until the second trimester, when I'm going back to my beloved skim. BUT I only drink organic milk - it isn't as watery as non-organic milk (tastes better and lasts about 4 times as long? Yes, please!)

Before I was pregnant I drank mostly soy as I thought I was lactose intolerant (I would occasionally have diarrhea even if I order starbucks without specifying soy). After I was pregnant I switched to organic skim milk and magically I have no problem at all.

I drank 2% growing up and switched to skim in college. But since my daughter started drinking cow's milk, we buy whole for her, so I've just been drinking that. I'm not too worried about the calories since I only have it on cereal, or the rare glass with a brownie or cookie.

whole milk or 2%. I especially love whole milk when it is organic.

Non fat for me. I really don't like milk so I only use it for cereal or to accompany cookies and brownies.

I drank 2% growing up and then switched to skim when I was on my own. Now that I'm pregnant I switched back to 2%. Whole milk kind of creeps me out, I don't know why.

I drink 2% because that's what the husband drinks and it's cheapest. If I had my way though I'd be drinking skim lactose free! I like the taste better, and I notice a huge difference in my body when I'm drinking that. Though I do want the baby to be used to normal milk so I'll stick with the 2% for now.
