20 months no more bottles, and won't drink milk

So as of last night it has been 5 nights in a row Emmy scerams and refuses her night bottle. It's so sad to know we're all done with bottles

ANyway she won't drink milk...I have tried every freaking sippy/straw/regular cup/cup and straw I can think of and she refuses. I have tried Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla milk as well. No luck. She eats cheese adn sometimes yogurt, but I think I need to add a calcium supp now. Do you have any suggestion? I hate milk and always have so I understand not wanting to drink it, but she NEEDS those calories, fat and calcium. ANY suggestions are appreciated!

dont stress to much dd did the same thing around her age try again in a few days if she is eating cheese and yogurt she will be ok

Re: 20 months no more bottles, and won't drink milk

Both DSs refused milk at first. I swtich back to 1/2 formula & 1/2 milk for about 2-3wks. Then I transition to milk and all went well.

As far as sippy cups go they are trial and error. I've gone through so many different kinds wasting so much money until I found the one they like best.

Good luck!

a close friend of mine on here had the same issue - but her daughter WOULD drink those yogurt shakes i believe...(they have milk in them).

can you try that maybe?

eta: does she have a favorite character from a book or tv show? what if you got a sippy with them on it???
