DD hates to drink milk.....
I don't know what to do anymore... she will drink like 3-4 cups of water or watered down juice a day... but as soon as I put Milk in the cup, forget it... that same cup lasts all freaking day... I tried putting chocolate, but for some reason it makes her sick. I make sure she has cheese and yogurt and the ped said I don't need to force the milk on her, but I feel like she needs it. Any advice?

Re: DD hates to drink milk.....
Josh was sooooo against milk. It was water all day long...until ped recommended ovaltine.
I was a skeptic, I had mixed milk with BM, chocolate, strawberry, honey...nothing worked.
for some strange reason though, he LOVES Ovaltine!

Re: DD hates to drink milk.....
Thomas doesn't like milk either. If he's in the mood, he'll drink a couple of ounces here and there, but hardly anything. When I first tried chocolate milk, he didn't like it. Now he does. That's how I get most of the milk he drinks in him. I use the powder with the added calcium and less sugar.
I want to try Ovaltine too.

Genevieve wouldnt drink milk unless it had chocolate in it. But I told her plain milk was ballerina milk and she needs to drink it whenever I give it to her to become a big strong ballerina.
It worked

Re: DD hates to drink milk.....
DD doesn't drink milk either. Infact she will literally spit it out when I give it to her.
Just recently have I tried (again) Horizon chocolate milk. She will now drink that. I just stopped BFing and have been giving her that 1st thing in the morning as a subsitute and she seems to like it.
It's taken FOREVER though.
No worries if they don't drink it I'm not concerned if my DD doesn't. She eats a lot of cheese and yogurt and other veggies that give her the same nutrients. And like Smiley said...I too give DD the OJ fortified with calcium and vitamin D

Re: DD hates to drink milk.....
My son isnt big into milk either....it takes him an hour to an hour and a half to drink 8 oz. And thats only once a day. My ped said it was fine as well, because he is getting it from other places.
My son LOVES the stonyfield farm smoothies...he has 1 a day, and this makes me feel better!

Re: DD hates to drink milk.....
My DD has never drank milk and she's 3 and healthy. I wouldn't stress about it. Just try to get the calcium in her in other ways.
