My baby is now 1 year old. Can I give regular cow's milk now, or should I stick with follow-on formula?

Congratulations on reaching 1 year! You can now give whole cow's milk up to 2-3 cups daily without formula. Follow-on formula is not medically necessary—but if your baby is a picky eater, very little appetite, or has a risk of iron deficiency, your pediatrician may recommend continuing formula a bit longer. Whatever you choose, keep it unsweetened and limit to about 2 cups daily.
