[quote=Anonymous]OP you gotta do you and what's best for your child. Formula for a few more months isn't going to hurt anything. I agree with the poster that suggested maybe starting to switch over to cows milk if you think that would help. Eating will click but it's not something 'magic' at 12 months despite what the AAP may say.

Our experience was more related to having a failure to thrive daughter. She was diagnosed at 13 months when we were attempting to wean her off of formula while she was learning to walk and exerting a ton of energy. Unsurprisingly that was not a great time to switch up her eating. By about 15 months she was eating much better and we switched her first to toddler formula and then to cows milk. She still has one bottle during the night at 18 months which I know I'll get yelled at for by every 'by the book' parent on here but she's doing fine eating solids during the day.

Btw solid starts has great info on how to prepare specific foods and a nice bottle weaning guide but avoid watching stories, the founder seems to manifest some serious ED issues with the story of her son. [/quote]
