I would pump a little bit of BM and mix with with WCM. He may surprise you and drink it. LO chugs her WCM at school and for her daddy but I have to really struggle to get her to take it from me.

I would leave both cups out on the counter and let the sitter decide what works while in the moment.

@hilsy85: Since this is the first time trying it I would do a bottle so it's fewer transitions for him. Now that my LO is on straight WCM during the day she takes it from these: http://www.diapers.com/p/the-first-years-take-toss-spill-proof-cups-7-oz-6-pk-6019?site=CA&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc_D&utm_term=LC-008&utm_campaign=GooglePLA&CAWELAID=1338722649&utm_content=pla&ca_sku=LC-008&ca_gpa=pla&ca_kw={keyword}

@hilsy85: At home she always did much better with straw cups (that's what she drinks water from). But they use those cups at day care and she slurps all her milk right down. But part of that might be because she sees all her friends doing it, so it might be tougher for you to get your little guy to do it. The good news is, at his age, he's eating enough solid food that even if he doesn't have any milk at all in the time you're gone he'll be fine! So try not to stress too much.

@hilsy85: I would start with a bottle. Fill it whatever you have to leave. But leave an empty cup and straw or empty zippy on the counter that they could dump into there if the bottle didn't go over well.
