My ds. now 6 months old, has never accepted the bottle, so I have exclusively b/f him. He is now on solids and hving 3 meals a day. I have been trying to give him water in a beaker for last 3 month. Have been using avent magic cup, without the valve in. I offer water at every meal, but without any luck. As sson as he sees the beaker, he wants it and will put it in his mouth, but doesn't actually drink from it.
Does anyone have any tips?? Should I try a different type of beaker? I'm quite keen to reduce the daytime feeds, but I'm worried he'll dehydrate if he's not drinking any other fluids..
