It's ok for him to have warm milk if he likes. Just like adults babies and children have their own personal preferences. The warm milk is probably comforting to him, so don't take that away from him. Best of luck. Happy New Year!

Because naturally babies would be receiving body-temperature milk (ie: breast milk), so you could either go to breast feeding (probably not an option at this point); OR keep warming the milk; OR gradually decrease the temperature of the milk (a weaning process of the temperature). Also talk to his pediatrician to make sure there isn't an underlying problem, the cold could be irritating to his tummy. Or perhaps even a dental problem.

Let's see, did you first try and give him some cold milk! The baby has to get used to drinking the milk so just keep trying!

Maybe his gums are sensitve and milk that cold causes him some discomfort. It won't hurt anything to warm up the milk for him, in fact, it might make him ready for a nap! He's still getting nutrients, and he really shouldn't be drinking too much milk anyway as it can give him anemia.

Take a gradual approach. Start off giving him the milk when it is room temperature-- then maybe a little cold-- eventually he may drink it cold.

First 3 days mix it with 3/4 formula 1/4 milk, then next 2 days 1/2 milk 1/2 fromula, then next 2 days 3/4 milk and 1/4 formula after that just milk and he/she won't even notice the change cause you did it slowly. Good luck and God bless!

Warm it up slightly and give it to him. Each day make it colder then the day before and eventually he'll be used to drinking cold milk.

if you giving it to him at bed time put a small sock over his sippy cup so his hands won't be cold.it worked for my son he would not hold a cold cup.
