What age should you stop giving your toddler milk in the morning and before bed!

My LO will soon be 2 years old and still has milk in the morning and before bed . At what age do I stop LO from having milk at bedtime and first thing in the morning? Also ask to drink milk throughout the day too even after eating solid foods x

@Oll LO doesn't have toddler milk as I introduced whole milk at 1 years and now will be 2 still having it. Also still has breakfast after milk and eats snacks, lunch and dinner everyday but sometimes doesnt eat well! I know its okay but I think he ask for milk more than food some days x

We stopped giving morning milk when he stopped eating his breakfast. We’ll give him a bedtime bottle until he no longer wants it, can’t imagine it’ll do him any harm having it for a while. Now and then my LO will ask for milk during the day - as it’s so rare I’ll let him have some (if after a meal), you could always try offering a snack instead if you’re worried he’s having too much milk :)

You don’t need to stop them from having milk. As long as you’re brushing their teeth at night after their last bottle ☺️ nothing wrong with milk during the day as long as they are eating well!

My 7 year old still has milk in the morning and asks for it just before bed.

I don’t see anything wrong with a few cups of milk a day. Even some adults still drink cups of milk throughout the day

Awwwww mamas thanks so much for your advice! I'll continue to let him have it but cut down on the amount he has throughout the day and get him to eat more xx

My daughter still had it morning & night in a baby bottle until she turned 3 years old! Shes now nearly 4 years old and sometimes will ask me for a cup of milk🤷🏼‍♀️

I stopped at 16 months
