Refuses to drink ANY milk in sippy cups...help!

It's been a week since we packed away bottles and began giving sippies with wcm full time.  Although DS didn't fuss at all when we took away bottles, he is flat out refusing to drink ANY milk from his sippies.  I tried warming them....that didn't work.  I tried giving it cold...that didn't work.  I've tried giving milk in straw sippies as well as sippies with nipple/like spouts.  That hasn't worked.  Basically, he absolutely refuses to drink milk now, but will drink water in a straw sippy. 

 

Any advice on how to get him to drink his milk?  I'm getting so worried he's not getting the vitamins and nutrients that he needs.

    My doctor said it's ok for him to drink no milk as long as he eats other dairy products, like cheese or yogurt.

    My dr suggested giving milk in sippy cups cold turkey.  No am or pm bottle and no water in a sippy either.  She said it sounds harsh, but your child is smart.  And if he/she knows a bottle is coming, or a water sippy is on its way, there

    Thanks so much, ladies!  I'm thinking I'm going to have to stop giving water in a sippy for a bit and give him no other choice but milk. I do give him yogurt and cheese, so at least he's getting what he needs from that. I'll share if I find any oth

    Maybe he isn't quite ready, I know they(pedis) say that LO's won't dehydrate themselves intentionally but for me personally that wasn't good enough. When I initially decided to start cutting bottles we were down to 3 at the time and I said to myself I'll
