Does anyone have any tips for transitioning from bottle to sippy cup? My Lo will drink water out of a sippy with no prob. But refuses to drink milk. He will take one sip then throw the cup. If i try to hold the cup & make him drink he will get upset and smack the cup around. As soon as I pour it into a bottle, he takes it with no problem.

Right now he is sick with an ear infection and I know he is getting a molar in, so he is crabby and in a lot of pain. Also it was kind of an adjustment changing from formula to milk, he didn't like milk right away. So I was going to stick with the bottle for the next couple weeks until he is back to his normal self.

I am having this same issue. I just keep offering him the siipy cup with milk during the day. I have only been giving him his bottle at nap and bedtimes. He is slowly starting to take the milk from the cup more.

Same problem here...she won't drink milk from the sippy. I keep offering hoping that it will eventually grow on her.

I used the Nuk trainer cup to transition Hallie off of the bottle. I had to continue warming it for a while. I slowly got her to take milk cold. I had to flavor it with strawberry syrup and used a straw sippy. We are only down to one warm milk in the Nuk at night now. She drinks cold strawberry or white milk through the day. Good luck!
