Starting to give cows milk

Has anyone started weaning their baby off their usual milk to switch to cows milk? Our baby is one in 3 weeks and she has been refusing her bottle in nursery and isn't fussed throughout the day at home. Wondering whether to start gradually adding cows milk to her formula 🤔

I’m breastfeeding but I’ve started replacing feeds with small snacks so that by the time my girl turns 1 she will only be on morning and evening milk (and through the night). Once she’s 1 I will then introduce cows milk for these feeds. As you are formula feeding could you do the same and start having small snacks instead through the day. Then for morning and evening when you start running out of formula start adding in cows milk. This might get you a bit closer to 1 with the formula x

Yes, I’ve started replacing 2-3oz per bottle with cows milk

We started by giving cow’s milk with Weetabix every evening. We’ve now replaced one of his formula bottles with a bottle of cow’s milk every other day or so, he hasn’t reacted to it at all so just swapping it in gradually! X
