[quote=Anonymous]DD takes water in straw and sippy cups, but will only take milk in a bottle (blame my DH who insisted we only change one thing at a time, argh!).  Right now she's getting 1 bottle of breast milk and 2 bottles of cow's milk at daycare, they started trying to give her the cow's milk in a sippy, but she will drink an ounce at most and then refuse it.  Daycare then gives her the rest in a bottle.  Last week, we tried it the opposite - breast milk in a sippy, but she does the same thing.  I don't want to offer her milk in a straw cup yet because with water she takes in too much and it dribbles out.  On top of all of that, on weekends at home, she refuses to take cow's milk from me, even in a bottle (she has taken breast milk from me in a bottle in the past, but not recently).  So I'm starting to get a little stressed out because I would like to stomp pumping as soon as possible, and start cutting back on nursing sessions on weekends (weekdays she only nurses am/pm).

I'm thinking maybe if we try with a completely different cup that she hasn't used before, maybe it will work.  Can you recommend a transitional sippy cup that worked for you?[/quote]
