Not drinking a lot of WCM? (Sorry y'all)

DD is (yet again) showing me how different she is then DS. He would suck down milk like it was going out of style. We had to limit it because he could easily drink 32 ounces. Not so much with DD- she barely drinks 8 ounces a day. Any tips? Or just make sure she gets other dairy every day? I never worried about this with DS.

  • I think if you are able to get some in you are doing good. Just keep offering and try to give other diary too.

  • I'm having this issue as well, but we are barely getting 8oz. She eats a crap load of cheese and other dairy, but refuses milk. She doesn't love water either...just depends on the day. I'm seriously considering switching to almond milk to see if she likes the taste better. I've been wanting to drop her bedtime bottle, but since that's the only consistent 4oz shes getting I'm nervous about dropping it altogether. Her 1 year shots are next tuesday so I'm planning to talk to the doctor then.
  • At her 1 year appointment the dr told us not to stress about her milk intake as long as she eats other dairy. She eats yogurt once a day and eats cheese almost daily. She is iffy on the milk. She hates sippy cups and they won't let her use a straw cup at daycare so I am really trying with the sippy cups but she wants me to hold it. I know she is getting enough but wish she would drink more.
