By the time babies are between 9 and 12 months old, they're often ready to make the switch from bottle to cup. At this age, they're more interested in what's going on around them than they are in sucking on a breast or bottle. But phasing out the bottle this early means planning ahead. Here are some tips:
1 Use formula as your baby's main drink until 12 months of age. 2  After this age, you may offer full cream cow's milk from a cup. 3  After your baby is 12 months old, it is best to stop using the bottle. 4  Small amounts of cow's milk can be used in solid foods after 6 months of age.oy, rice, sheep's or goat's milk are not healthy to give to babies as their main milk drink under 12 months of age. They do not have enough of the right nutrients (vitamins, iron etc) or the right balance for babies.
