Won't drink enough...

So Dylan has decided he no longer wants to drink more than a cup of milk/fluid a day. He won't drink water, he won't drink juice... I even tried chocolate milk to get him to drink. I'm worried he's going to get dehydrated. I'm sure it's just a phase. I've been giving him a ton of yoghurt to make up for the dairy and his diapers are still wet. Has anyone else experienced this?

Re: Won't drink enough...

  • Andrew has gone through this phase too.  And I'm still trying to get him completely off of bottles (still on first am bottle and bedtime bottle).

    Is he teething?

    I'm sure its just a phase, like it was with my DH.  I would try and give him more dairy, and maybe lots of fruit.  They tend to have high water content.

  • Yep, DD has been doing the same thing.  Like PP suggested, we have been doing tons of yogurt and fruit, hoping that it will help with replacing the missing fluids. She slowly seems to be drinking more, so I am hoping it is a phase too! 
  • Yeah, we've been doing lots of fruit too. I think that's why his diapers are staying wet. Crazy kids, they sure love mixing it up on us. Haha
