Guest guest Posted July 5, 2000 Report Share Posted July 5, 2000 We have tried three different kind of sippy cups. She just tries to nurse them - tongue going on bottom, clicking sound as she gums them for a letdown I think part of the problem is that she is not wild about any of the liquids we have given her in them. I am not about to put EMM in it while she is not managing to drink succesfully, since I would have to use a lot for her to reasonably be able to tip it, and I don't have any to spare. She HATES applejuice and applesauce, you would think we were trying to poison her. And she is not too wild about water either. I think we will try white grape juice, since she likes grapes. Thanks for the help!

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2000 Report Share Posted July 5, 2000 Lynn, I had good luck with pear juice and white grape, you could also try rice milk it is a similiar consistency to breastmilk.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2000 Report Share Posted July 5, 2000 Avent also has a system of graduated training cups--don't know if any are leak proof though. My kiddo didn't like anything apple until after a year--except that he would eat an apple off the core at 9 months. Amy Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
