switching from bottle to sippy cup
DD (15 months) gets a bottle when she wakes up, before her nap and before she goes to sleep at night. the rest of the day she drinks water from a sippy cup. there is NO way she will drink milk from a sippy cup and i envision her drinking from a bottle until she's a teenager at the rate we're going! advice?

Re: switching from bottle to sippy cup
well are going through this. it took a while, for 2 months i offered her the sippy both w/ water or milk all day whenever i could till she slowly starting drinking a little milk from it here and there. (i still gave her a bottle in am and pm) supposedly from what my ped. says and what a lot of girls here say they may go on strike when you take the bottle away and not drink milk for a day or 2 but eventually they will. we finally took the bottle away about a week ago and she is slowly drinking more and more milk from the sippy but not nearly as much as she was before. she actually seems to like drinking from a real straw best have you tried that? she also like those yobaby yogurt drinks which i figure is almost as good as drinking milk.
other ideas I've heard are to try chocolate milk.. good luck, it has not been fun for us!!

she's just so cranky if i don't walk into her room in the morning with a bottle in hand ready to go! i could only imagine the fits that would be thrown if i dared to walk in with a sippy cup
