Why should I wait until after 1 year to introduce milk?
One of the main reasons you should wait until after baby is 1 year old to introduce milk as a formula/breast milk replacement is that milk/dairy hinders the absorption of iron in the body. Milk is also much harder for baby to digest than breast milk or infant formula.
Milk by itself does not contain all the nutrients of breast milk or formula and should never be used as a substitute until after 1 year of age. The cooking of the food that contains the milk will aid in breaking down the milk proteins so that many babies who are 8 months+ are able to have baked goods that contain milk.
As noted on our solid food chart for the 4-6 month old baby, we indicate that dairy should not replace breast milk or formula until a baby is 12 months of age. There is a possibility of serious health risks should breast milk and/or formula be replaced with cow milk, particularly at the 4-6 month age range!
These risks include Iron Deficient Anemia. Cow milk hinders the absorption of Iron and can cause anemia. Iron is crucial for baby's healthy development. Besides the risk of iron deficient anemia, if your baby drinks cow milk to replace breast milk and/or formula, baby will not receive enough Vitamin E or enough EFAs (essential fatty acids). These nutrients are also crucial to healthy growth and development.
Your baby would also receive levels of protein and sodium that would be too high for baby's fragile system to handle. Cow milk protein is very difficult for an infant to digest and absorb. While formula may be cow milk based, the proteins are "pre-digested" and cultured in a way that make baby's tummy better able to tolerate them. Believe it or not, the levels of sodium (and potassium) in cow milk are very high. Too much sodium might cause an infant's kidneys to fail and as we know, high levels of sodium can lead to high blood pressure.
These are a few of the reasons why the AAP and other pediatric authorities do not want babies to drink milk as a replacement until 12 months of age. As you know, breast milk is the most perfect food for infants and babies could survive on breast milk alone for the first 12 months. Formula, while not the perfect food like breast milk, has been created with the crucial and essential nutrients that an infant needs to grow healthy and maintain a proper nutritional status. Whole cow milk does not provide for the good health and growth of babies.

Morning ladies, busy day... But it's FRIDAY!!! Hurray!
Ellysia, maybe he's teething?! My boy's body will also be warm when he's sprouting the next tooth. Can check if he's biting on things very hard. Don't worry.

Can 9 Month Old Baby Drink Milo?
Nov 18, 2008
Well, not recemmended
by: Baby Help Line
Hi Ram!
Actually I would not give Milo to a 9 month old baby for several reasons.
Since Milo is based on cow's milk, it should be used with caution for any child younger than 1 year old.
You can read more about what foods to avoid for babies here.
In addition, Milo contains a lot of sugar, which may result in tooth decay and also that your son will become even more picky about other foods.
In stead of Milo, can you offer him formula or breast milk? That is much better nutrition for young picky eaters.
And for some tips on how to help your baby to become more interested in eating solid foods, click here.
I hope this helps,
/Paula

hi Ellysia, it's not the rubber type. I bought a plastic type which is one full sheet. 2.3m by 2.4m and 15mm thick. LG Prime brand. supposed to be from Korea. It's quite expensive.. $258.. but decided to just spend... I thought of the square type, (ie. the alphabet mat type) but decided it's too lehchey to fit in and take out.. easier to roll the mat or fold the mat up. and it's supposed to be cooling enough and soft enough even to sleep on! Not sure how true it is though cos it's not arrived yet. it was a mini hole in my pocket.. so struggled with buying/not buying for quite a bit yesterday...
Re: Food/milk.
Anyone knows how much food/milk our bbs are supposed to be eating now? Matthew takes about 100ml of fruit for breakfast, another 100ml of thick porridge/potato + root veg for lunch. dinner is also 100ml of thick porridge/potato + root veg. He takes about 900ml milk per day. Does it sound normal? He is about 7 months 2 weeks now. He's a very active boy.

feifei, I regret not buying the playmat before Matthew was born. you are so smart!!!! Yes yes! I saw the hello kitty one.. but mine is boy.. so I bought the Alphabet Pooh design.. the biggest rectangular space in my boy's bedroom is about 3m by 3.4m.. so I had to buy the large size (2.3m by 1.4m). I couldn't buy 2 standard size to put together cos it would be too large for his room.. although that wld have been my preferance cos I can move one standard size into my room when he wants to be in my room...
feifei, did you buy from smallsmallworld too? there's another webby that is currently selling hello kitty design at $119.standard size. but not sure if it's the same design as yours. LG Prime also. reversible.
aiyah.. if I had chatted with you and ND's gal earlier, good. won't think too much before buying... should have gotten it earlier! Before Matthew was born, I was thinking of getting those alphabet mats..so didn't think of the bumper playmat.

Morning ladies.
Cactus, the bumper playmat is a good buy. I also bought one before my girl was born and she's been playing on it since she was 2 months till now. It's like a standard fixture in our living room now. I find that the cushioning is good for when she flips and crawls. At least I can be sure she won't accidentally knock her head on the cold hard floor. Of course she's crawling all over the place by now. But she still loves to crawl back to the playmat whenever she's playing with her toys and such. Probably cos it's warmer.
Feifei, I just saw your msg. If you need help with financial acctg stuff, feel free to PM me. I'm still somewhat in the actg line though not exactly an accountant. Will help you in any way I can.

Feifei, the one you got looks like the one currently on promo, but it's not smallsmallworld that's selling it. another webby.. babejoy? I can't recall. was surfing yesterday!
Hi Krispy!!
Another smart mommy! I SHOULD have bought it earlier! Aiyah.. why why why never ask you mommies earlier?!! Matthew is always crawling everywhere...
Ellysia, from what I understand, there are currently only 2 types of bumper playmats from Korea. LG brand and Parklon brand. Parklon is slightly softer than LG brand, although they come in various sizes and designs, just like LG too! LG has normal LG, LG Prime and LG Ama..something (thickest at 18mm and it is supposed to be sound proof). The mats come in 4 sizes. 1m x something (hard to find), 1.9m by something (standard size), 2.3m by 1.4m (large size) and for the Ama..something mat, 2.1 by 1.4m by 18mm. The first 3 sizes come in 11mm, 12mm (only for Parklon brand), 13mm and 15mm.
