Its recommended that you heat up cows milk for children under 1 as it makes it easier for them to digest. Once they get to 1, its less of an issue I believe.
My nephews like it warm, so I tend to add a little bit of boiling water to take the chill off.

When I gave it to Beks I just gave it cold or at room temperature. She always drank it fine. Now I know to heat it up a bit if I give it to Asha before she is 1 . As Dizie said maybe just enough to take the chill of it as she also just has her formula at room temperature.

Eds been on cows milk for a week now and is fine on it. I blat it in the microwave like I did his formula but I might stop doing that soon and see if he'll take it at room temp (if I remember to get it out of the microwave)!

lol not sure about this one. i must confess to giving tom cows milk warmed at room temperature on his oats. i haven't noticed any side effects.
lol dizie max is the same with warming his milk. if i dare to give him it cold he gives it straight back and tells me 'hot' which means i have to make it warm. he folds his arms and refuses to accept it back until he sees it going into the microwave!! little rascal.

I've started giving fred milkshake, which is always given cold! or at room temp! He drinks it either way! So I wouldn't know how to solve this one unlessyou add a dash of warm water to it just to take the chilll off

I run out of formula when Adam was 2 weeks away from being 1 so moved him over to cows milk and he took to it straight away. He likes it heated and would never take cold milk anyway.
