12 month old won’t drink from anything but me!

Hi All,

My 12-month-old is still breastfed but has always been great at taking a bottle and has been using an open cup and 360 cup since he started weaning at 6 months. Recently though, he has point blank refused the bottle, won’t have milk from anything other than me and is now resisting water from his cup.

I wanted to stop breastfeeding in the next few months and this now goes me to him more than ever and makes it really difficult for anyone else looking after him.

Has anyone got any tips? 🙏

What about your water bottle which is only for you? Play with teacup in the bath. Ice lollies, bottles with straws - I always need to find the next gimmick to get mine to drink.

@Fitforforty Good point - he always likes my water bottle. Have just ordered him one with a straw so will see how we go! Thanks 🤞
