Decrease Milk intake.
give syp Ibert 1tsf daily ,milk only 2 cups daily n try solid food
try to reduce the quantity of cow milk gradually then frequency gradually this way when he feels hungry offer him food and not milk, slowly and gradually he'll start to eat food. cow milk makes the child anorexic and decreases food intake so iron deficiency aswell.

No. your goal should be to make him milk free and completed on weaning as all adults do. if you shift his milk to formula then in the end you'll have to make him leave that aswell which will be another challenge for you. so it's good that you wean him off cow milk slowly slowly, first decrease the quantity then decrease the frequency meanwhile make him sit with all family and make him eat whatever all family eats he'll learn and practice slowly slowly.. keep him hungry by not offering milk then make him eat food after food give him some milk.
