    Finally Thomas drank from a sippy. I had been trying all different kinds with water and on rare occasion even juice. He would pitch a fit. Finally today, I said the boy needs to learn so I put his formula in it. He threw yet another fit and then for some reason he realized what was in it and he drained the cup totally.

    So now the question is, do I give him a sippy instead of the bottle for all 3 bottles, or should I just swicth the afternoon bottle to a sippy.

    Thanks ladies

    :clapping: Go Thomas!!! :clapping:

    I'm not sure if you should switch to all sippies. What I would do is go for it. If he is going to drink from a sippy, it will save you the hassle later on! There are no benefits from drinking from the bottle! :banana:

    His sister only drinks from a sippy. She hates her bottle, always has.

    Yeah for drinking from a sippy!!! I say if he'll drink from it (and it the same amount as he gets in his bottles), then you can start transitioning away from bottles. You have to eventually anyway.

    We have tried a few kinds, but the one he finally drank from was a plain old insulated playtex cup. THe one with handles he treated like a hammer!

    I would switch now if he will. Why wait. I am thinking of trying it soon for the one bottle mine get a day. We do a little water in when eating but I may try milk
