Anyone have this problem with drinking milk out of a cup??

UGH! I dont know what to do anymore.

We have EVERY cup ever made. Straw cups, regular sip cups, sip cups with the piece removed so it flows faster, little dixie cups, big cups....Megan will not drink milk from any of them!

She drinks her juice fine from one of them but milk? Forget it! She only gets her one bottle at night before bedtime. She drinks 8 oz. But she is getting no other milk during the day. I make sure I give her cheese, yogurt, and her vitamins every day but she is just NOT getting enough milk.

My ped says, when she is thirsty, she will drink it. But she is SO STUBBORN, she drinks her juice in the middle of the day and I guess that satisfies her thirst. She LOVES milk so thats not the problem, she just doesnt like it out of any cup. Anyone else have this problem? What did you do? I would love to get her off that night time bottle but its the only time I know she will drink her milk...ugh!

I'd love to know too. DS still has the night time bottle since I can't get him to drink milk from a cup. Just like your DD, juice and water in the cup are fine. It's so frustrating Chat Icon

I just started trying to give DD her formula in a cup instead of the bottle & she is not having it. The most she has drank from the cup is 2-3oz. I did the same thing trying all different kinds of cups...One day she'll drink it Chat Icon

Welcome to my world- she is almost 14 months old and loves water out of all sippys but milk, forget it. It has to be a bottle. As a result, she has like 5 bottles a day still. My ped is going to have fit but I refuse to not give her milk if she won't take it out of sippy. She is just impossible to deal with. Chat Icon

So glad Im not the only one. He will drink water and sometimes juice from a cup, but, milk HAS to be in a bottle. When we get back from vacation, bottles are going "Bye Bye" for good.
He's going to be 14 months on the 15thChat Icon ...I'm just going to keep trying.

Yes!!! I have this problems..DD is 14 months and still only drinks milk out of bottle. When milk is in a sippy she just throws it on the floor. She will drink a small amount of juice & water from a sippy. I am so frustrated with this
