15mos bottles

JWSchwarz

Ds is still getting 4 bottles a day for a total of 22oz WCM. He has 3 pretty big solid meals a day too, and one snack.

He flat out refuses to drink milk out of a sippy. If i give him a regular cup he just pours it out and plays in it or dumps it on his head. We've tried regular straw cups but he just pulls the staw out and shakes all the liquid out. he drinks water out of a straw sippy just fine, it's just the milk he won't touch.

He loves his bottles though. Ironic since he was EBF and refused bottles up until about 6 or 7 months. Any advice for weaning off the bottle while still making sure he gets enough milk?

When I first introduced the sippy with formula, I think before 15 mos, DS wasn't having it.  I tried during a meal and he just refused.  We held off trying again until after our big trip in Feb.  I introduced it again but this time at night

I'd just take them away completely.  If he has no other options, he'll drink from a cup. It might take a day or

Thanks!
We have te playtex straw cup and he does good with that with water. I'll just catch him when he's hungry and make that his only option. He's just doing so good right now i hate to rock the boat but he's going to be 2 before i know it!

Guess its time to get a new cup and give my LO some tough love... I just hate that he will ONLY drink MILK from the bottle! He's a big boy and I've noticed people giving us "the look" as if he's too big for a bottle... but truth is he's only 1!!!! Wish me

I am SO glad that I'm not the only one who is struggling with this. LO will only drink milk from her bottles. She just turned a year old and I hate to take her bottles away because I feel like she is still my little baby. I love the snuggle time that I ha
