How do I warm cow's milk for a sippy?

I'm planning to offer DD a sippy of cow's milk starting this week. She's ebf so I don't know how she'll do with it but I figure warming it might help. I have no idea the best way to do that. TIA for any tips!

My DD is a big fan of her milk being warmed (Chat Icon ) so I usually measure it in her cup and then warm it in a pot for less than a minute. Does the trick. Chat Icon

Re: How do I warm cow's milk for a sippy?

all three of my kids went from EBF to milk right out of the fridge...i would try that first....this way you don't have to get them into that habit...

they will prob refuse it at first...bt when they realize they arent getting milk any other way...they will cave...i promise! Chat Icon

Why are you warming it? Just give it to her right out of the fridge.

Do you warm it right in the sippy without the top or in a separate container?

I guess I'll try cold first and see how it goes. It's hard enough getting her to take bm in a bottle or sippy so I'm not expecting much.

I would try it not warmed first. She may be ok with it that way and then you are saving a step.

I just nuke it, and then make sure to shake it really really well.

i agree, try not warmed add see if she takes to it. If she does, then less work for you!

My DS refuses cold milk and he's 2.5.

I heat it in a glass bottle in the microwave for 40 seconds.

I warm it up with the lid off for about 30 seconds and then put the lid on and shake it to get rid of hot spots.

I've tried giving DS milk straight from the fridge and he hates it. It's just his preference to have warm milk.
