Toddler Milks: Why You Don't Need to Buy These Formulas

##135: Does my baby need a toddler milk or a toddler formula after turning 1? What if you’re worried about growth or brain development or immunity, do these products make toddlers healthier? The answer is no, you don’t need to be buying these formula products and I’m breaking down every reason why. In this episode we’re looking at toddler milks, the fastest growing sector of the US formula market...and for good reason. The marketing behind these products is INSANE and you’ll be amazed at how brazen the formula companies are in pushing these products (that your toddler does not need!) Listen to this episode to learn:  What are they and how are they different from infant formula? What ingredients are in toddler formulas and why shouldn’t children have them? But if my toddler isn’t eating great, aren’t these just like extra nutrition insurance? What SHOULD 1 year olds be drinking (and HOW should they be drinking)?  Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/135 Links from This Episode: My favorite open cup for BLW: the Tiny Cup from ezpz - this is for babies 6-12 months and you can get 10% off with my affiliate discount code KATIE10 and click here to shop the Tiny Cup to start practice open cup drinking as early as 6 months of age Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program   Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners Other Episodes Related to This Topic: Episode 13- Milk Protein: How to Introduce Your Baby to this Potentially Allergenic Food Episode 113 - Transitioning to Cow's Milk: How Do I Do This? 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?
