Hiya when my daughter was weaning I used to use full fat milk in all cooked food

I think they say you are only meant to use formula or breast milk and then from 1 they can have cows milk. That’s what I read anyway!

Cows milk is fine in food from 6 months.

Cows milk is fine in food. Formula and breast milk for their milk feeds.

If baby doesn't finish their morning milk bottle and you are giving them cereal within an hour then you can use the rest of the formula bottle and then tip up with cows milk or extra formula.

However if baby is struggling with weight gain then I'd use formula in food

For weaning we use formula milk as she’s still quite young for cows milk. As they are getting closer to 1 years old I’m gonna start giving cows milk occasionally and build it up so when they’re 1 they can go straight onto cows x
