I am looking for some healthful & effective suggestions for how to help my breastfeeding 1-year-old adjust to cows milk? so far she doesn't like it!

Mix it Up: Introducing whole milk gradually into child's diet is key. Try warming milk to make it more palatable and using different kinds of fun sippy cups to make drinking the milk more fun. Try mixing it with breast milk and gradually increasing the amount of milk in the mix. Introduce milk into other foods that she likes including cereal, oatmeal, etc. Drink milk together so that she sees you enjoying it
