best cups for bottle refusers?

hi - dd2 is nearly 4 months old. we have been trying to introduce a bottle for ages but to no avail. max amount she will drink whether it is EBM or formula is 1oz.

Am thinking therefore, of abandoning the bottles for cups (She will need to take something from someone as i will be back at work at 7 months and want to be able to leave her over a feedtime prior to that)

Someone on here recommended a brand of cups that young babies could cope with - any ideas?

Doidy cup was recommended by local bf counsellor

Good luck

We're using the simple Tommee Tippee one. But she will only drink water from it, not milk. I'm back at work in less than two weeks - she'll be just over 7 months - and I'm resigned to lots of night feeding!

Tip it up - I had luck with this one for my DD. Also used a doidy as well but it is sometimes handy to have a lid. I am a cup queen have bought nearly everyone in the last 3 years!! Good luck can be frustrating.
