R finally started drinking milk better when we used a sippy and not a straw cup. I think cause it was more like a bottle. Now she is fine with a sippy or straw cup. yin on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891263 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 09:07:41 +0000 yin 1891263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Congratulations!

Keep offering and offer other substitutes. My Ped didn't seem super concerned about milk intake but I was BFing still. jetsa on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891258 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 09:06:21 +0000 jetsa 1891258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Congrats!! No advice on the sippy transition because we switched early :) Adira on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891257 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 09:05:25 +0000 Adira 1891257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yay!!! Congratulations!!!! As for getting her to drink milk out of a sippy/straw cup, it just takes times. When I bottle weaned, I took a bottle away each week and gave him a sippy/straw cup instead. He barely drank anything for a few weeks, but then they realize that's all they're getting and make the switch. avivoca on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891252 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 09:02:35 +0000 avivoca 1891252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @autumnlove: I have been doing that, but she takes one drink of the milk, makes a sour face, and then asks for her water.

I would just keep offering it :) autumnlove on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891246 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 08:59:58 +0000 autumnlove 1891246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Congrats! I would start offering a cup at meals. It toook my LOs a few days to get the hang of the straw! avivoca on "We made it!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-made-it-3#post-1891240 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 08:53:34 +0000 avivoca 1891240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I made my goal of EBF for one year! It definitely wasn't easy, but we did it. I started supplementing with WCM last week as I was starting to pump wean, but other than that, it's been all breastmilk. There were several times where I thought we wouldn't make it, but we did. Now, any ideas about how to get H to drink milk from a straw cup? She'll drink WCM no problem out of a bottle and mixed with breastmilk, but no dice on the sippy or the straw cup.
