Current opinion maintains that you should wait until she is 12 months.
Our son constantly brought up small amounts of his feed, when on formula milk.

We tried him on cows milk at about 8 or 9 months, and that stopped immediately. He was fine on cows milk and it seemed to suit him better.
my oldest son had it from 9 months and never hurt him x
Technically speaking you aren't supposed to give cows milk to babies under 1 as their digestive system can't handle it. I would wait for another few months until she is nearer 12 months then introduce it gradually ie mix 2oz in with formula to start with then increase it over a week. Don't just swap it all at once!
Mines been on it for a month - he was one in August - and he can't get enough of it. Strangely, the bottles have stopped leaking too!
