Formula to milk transition chart

You know your little one is getting older when it's time to start thinking about making the transition from formula to whole milk. In what probably feels like just minutes, your teeny tiny child has gone from sleepy newborn to rambunctious toddler who is ready to ditch the bottle and move on to the big kid stuff...

well, almost ready, anyway. There are upsides to this (whole milk is considerably cheaper than formula!) and downsides: namely, learning how to wean your baby off formula.

When To Wean Your Baby Off Formula

How do you know if your baby is ready to make the switch?
