Drinking milk out of a sippy...advice, please!

MY DD loves to drink water out of her sippy and will do it all day long!  However, once we put milk in she refuses. She will take a drink thinking it's water and then throw it when she realizes it's milk.  I've exclusively pumped since she was a week old so she's always had a bottle for milk.  We would like to make the transition soon so that she isn't using bottles much past 1, if at all. Any advice?  We've tried three different kinds of cups, including straws.  TIA!!

  • Just keep trying. And use a completely different cup for milk so she knows what to expect. A did the same thing at first but is now used to it.

  • I have been doing what cassopea suggested in several other posts. Give LO F/WCM in a different cup then her water. I offer formula at every meal with in a sippy and whatever she doesn't finish I put into a bottle. This has been working really well! She will now take some formula from a straw sippy. GL!
