Yu should give baby milk up to a year old then you can move onto full fat fresh milk after that (should be out a cup by then and off bottles). You dont really ever stop giving fresh milk but if the child is of normal height and weight by 2 you can switch to semi skimmed if thats what youd normally buy for everyone else in the house. My kids still love milk to drink and in cereal and they are 4 and 8. (baby is 4 weeks so still on baby milk)

yup i was told a year, although you can use full fat milk in cooking and ceral from 6 months

there are also toddler formulas for 1yr plus but tbh i think if lil one is having a varied diet then normal milk is fine...
