A toddler formula is a good alternative if your toddler isn't able to drink whole milk, since they are available in soy and elemental formulations, such as Enfamil Toddler Transitions Soy and EleCare Jr, etc. 1  Since they are iron fortified, standard toddler formulas may also be a good choice if your toddler is simply a very picky eater.

If you have a child who is more stubborn or resistant to change, than a more gradual approach usually works better. Using this method you might just substitute one bottle of formula for whole milk every few days or weeks, choosing a middle of the day bottle which your baby will be the least likely to miss. The first bottle in the morning and the last bottle of the day are usually the hardest bottles to give up and the ones you should leave until she is drinking milk well throughout the day. If even this method is too drastic, you might start mixing your infant's formula and the milk together.

At a year old, formula-fed babies can switch to whole cow's milk. It is important to use whole milk, because children under two years old need fat for brain development. One-year-old breastfed babies will benefit from continuing to nurse, for as long as both mother and baby are happy with the arrangement.

Solid foods aren't as convenient, anyway! Wait until your baby shows signs that they are ready. Your baby's health care provider can talk to you about the signs of readiness. Usually babies are ready around six months old, and sometimes a little earlier. Your baby's first solid food should be an iron-fortified rice cereal. You may hear that solid food will help your baby sleep through the night, but this is a myth.

Breast milk alone is the ideal food for the first 6 months of life. If you wean your baby before 12 months of age, give an iron-fortified formula. The formula should be iron-fortified to prevent anemia (low blood count). Don't start cow's milk until your child is one year old. Cow's milk does not have the vitamins babies need. There is generally no need to give your breastfed baby water, juice or other foods in the first 6 months.
