My DD's Dr has recently put her on whole milk. She does fine with it and has no problems. The only thing it she will not drink it cold. It has to be warm. Is this a problem? Does any one have any suggestions to how i can get her to take it cold? Or is this something I should not worry about?

Before I took my son off Formula, I started heating it less and less until he would take it cold or warm. You could try warming it less and less until she will take it cold. Does she drink her juice or water cold?

She will drink her juice cold, prefers it more at room temp though. It would be so much easier when we travel for her to take it cold. My mom thinks may be she will like it cold when it is summer time.

I too started the whole milk heated up and slowly weaned her down to cold milk. I mean if they're used to warm milk their entire life it takes a little while for many of them to drink it cold. She might like it better in the summer like your mom thinks. It will just take a little time for her to adjust.
