Milk substitute

My daughter is now 12 months and I do not want to put her on cows milk. So i was wondering if anyone has tried other things like almond milk, soy milk, coconut milk, rice milk.. etc. Not sure i want to put her on soy milk cause of the estrogen. So i was thinking about almond milk, but do i have to worry about a nut allergy? Ive talked to her dr and she knows i dont want to put her on cows milk and i plan to discuss what i do choose with the dr, but just wanted to see what eveyone else is doing and get opinions.

Thanks

Sorry I'm no help at all, but I'm curious.. What is the reason for not using cow milk?

Toddler milk.

I stay away from soy as much as I possibly can.
My friend gives her kids and herself, lol rice milk and almond milk.

My kids drank soy formula and now drink almond milk or lactose free milk. They dislike the rice milk. My DD has a lactose allergy so I never chanced it with my son.

i just feel that it is no good. we are the only species to drink milk past infant stage and i dont see the need

my question though is do i have to worry about a nut allergy?

Quoting Amanda_Lee91:" my question though is do i have to worry about a nut allergy? "

yes, if there is family history. and sometimes even if there is not. Although peanut is the most common allergy

If you haven't tried nuts with her then yes.

I've heard great things about goat's milk apperently its very close to human milk.
