I forgot to mention that Adria is drinking 100% cow’s milk now. It has been about a week. We phased it in by mixing up a small amount of formula and then topping it off with milk…truth is, though, she never really cared. A couple of times, just out of convenience, we gave her an all-milk bottle, and she took it just fine.
For about 2 weeks we had daycare doing 50/50 milk and formula, and then a week ago we let them switch to all milk. We still have some formula at home, so we were doing partial formula bottles for a few days more, but soon we also slipped to milk-only out of convenience. Adria likes it just fine, and doesn’t even mind it cold.
The formula is actually fortified with vitamins not found in cow’s milk….they recommend a multivitamin (in dropper form that you mix with the milk) once they aren’t taking formula anymore. We’ve got that on hand, but we’ve also got half a container of formula left too. I think that I’ll try and slip a scoop or two of formula in every day until we’re out…then we’ll do the vitamins.

This is a blog for curious friends and family to keep up-to-date on what we're going through as we progress through the first days, weeks, and month's of the Adria's life. Adria is such a joy, we love to watch as she grows and learns new things daily.
