I thought cow's milk could be introduced after a year, but I really don't know if that's true or not.


.That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure either..


cows milk should be introduced after a year, thats right.


.I'm gonna have to talk to .Kaylee's doctor next week when we go get her shots then because now .I'm wonding something.. Her doctor has to fill this paper out for .Wic in order to get the formula since it's a "special" kind or whatever. They have to put the reason why the child is on this kind of formula, how much is used a day & how long they are to be on it. Well on the sheet my doc filled out he had on it that .Kaylee is only suppose to be on it for 9 months. Well what am I suppose to give her after that? Normal .Similac again? That's why I was wondering when you're suppose to start milk Confused


my doc only gives me a prescription for neocate every 3 months. like the last one i got said until 9 months, so when he turned 9 months, i knew he still needed neocate, and i got another prescription for until 12 months. once 12 months comes im getting another one for until 15 months. its probably the same thing in your case. 9 months is just an estimation that they do for wic, because wic is cheap sometimes and they dont like having to pay for the expensive formulas for more months than they have to.


.Okay, yeah you're probably right. Come to think of it the wic checks I get only cover 3 months at a time so that sounds right. Thanks!
