Keep mixing it with BM, but gradually change the ratio of WM to BM, until she is drinking straight WM.

ugh. I hope you have better luck than I am. we've been trying for almost two months at this point. my DD doesn't take anything from a bottle, and only water from a cup, so I'm totally stuck for options.

I recently posted this on facebook and got a TON of helpful comments about trying different cups, cutting it with other things, and not worrying too much about her intake

@MarieJ: I tried a couple of different brands too. What about adding a little something like juice to make it a little sweeter (like BM)?

I tried different cups, different temps and sweetening it with Ovaltine but what ultimately worked for us was to cut water with WCM...10% milk to water and gradually increasing the milk ratio over the span of a few weeks until it was just WCM, which he'll now drink straight.

ETA: In the meantime he gets lots of yogurt and cheese and still sometimes nurses once a day so I didn't stress myself about it.

@rachiecakes: We are still struggling with getting her to take milk from a sippy . . . she takes one mini swig and then tosses the sippy! I feel like I need full on (hockey) goalie gear some days! I thought we were in the clear when we made the transition to WM, because she will drink cold water from her sippy, but alas, we weren't so lucky. It's always something!
