Dec is 101/2 months and my HV advised me to start giving him more full-fat milk now, he has been getting some for about 11/2 months now but she said it is about time I started weaning him off the formula so by the time he gets to 1 year he is off it completely.

My HV said full fat cows milk from 6months, BUT only in foods eg. With their breakfast, mash tati.
To drink it in a bottle from 12months.

I thought 12 months aswell. Although Kian can't tolerate it. He can now tolerate semi skimmed cows milk.
