So Jack started on whole milk Friday. And it's been a little tough trying to get the 16-24 oz my doc said he needs into him each day. I bought organic whole milk. He's still getting used to the texture, I think. So I sneak it into his cereal. I also bought yogurt and cheese. That should count towards the 16-24 oz, right? Oh, he is also still bf'ing twice a day. So I figure that's about 8 oz of milk. But anyone else have any good ideas for getting them to take the milk?
Yogurt and cheese is a great way to get some milk into them. Amelia hasn't started whole milk yet (we're a few weeks behind you), but she LOVES yobaby yogurts (those are the only yogurts made with whole milk), slices of american cheese, and things like that for snack.
