S.T.
I would say take him off the formula, and just give him whole milk. At his age, with teeth, he is ready for food and regular stuff. Good luck, Merry Christmas, and God Bless.
My son will be 11 months old on December 8th. We just switched him to sippy cups and he was doing great with them. He has never had any problems drinking formula until recently. Every once in a while he will drink 8 oz. with no problem but for the most part he will drink maybe a couple ounces and wants nothing more to do with it. We have tried giving it to him in a bottle again, sippy cups, straw cups and a regular sup and nothing is helping. I'm not sure what to do.

I agree with Susie. Just give him whole milk and well balanced diet and he will get all of the nutrition he needs. And, stay away from juice for now. That seemed to help us with the introduction. In fact, we only give juice as a treat once in a great while and stick to giving him fruit. Works wonders for us. Good luck.
You might want to mix some whole milk 1/4 with formula 3/4. I had one child that had trouble with sippy cups we had to use the Nuby cups. They were wonderful. I know my pediatrician told me to never put whole milk in a bottle or you will never get them off of he bottle. It might just be that he like the comfort/familiarity of drinking formula from a bottle. I can not remember what is the normal number of ounces that an 11 month old should have in formula per day.
Good luck. My best advice is to not stress about it. That is easier said than done, I know but he will be fine.
Try to transition him to whole milk. He is old enough.
time to switch him to whole milk. put that in a sippy instead hope this helps!
Yep! Time for the real deal! =0) Finally skipping the formula aisle at the store is a reason for a big celebration party!!! Congratulations!!! LOL
