18 month and milk intake

[* Paula *]

So we tried the Soy Milk, and no go - you should have seen the look he gave us.

I even bought some flavoured milks today to see if he would drink that, and still refused point blank.

I feel like I am loosing this battle

Sorry if you already told us this, but how about warming it a tiny bit?

He used to only drink his formula warmed, and has always taken his cows milk warmed.  I have also tried to give it to him cold and he just does not seem interested.

Thanks for that info Stacy, I will definitely give it a try.

What about giving it to him with meals?

[* Paula *]

I have tried to give him milk with his meals, and he often refuses and points looking for his juice.

I am going to persever tomorrow and not offer any juice at all, as I am really getting worried about his intake of milk.

Will let you know how we get on.

Good Luck Paula, but don't worry yourself sick over it.  If he is taking cheese and yogurt, that may be all he needs.

Did you ever try adding choclate or strawberry syrup to it???

Well we had no go with the milk at meal times today  I gave it to him, and kept on picking up his cup saying juce juce.

He did have a few sips from a straw this evening so fingers crossed this is progress.

The good news is that cause he is not taking his milk in the evening, he is waking up really hungry, and is eating 2 1/2 Weetabix for breakfast, and I can get about 9 oz of milk in there, so at least he is getting some milk.
