She was happy drinking out of a tommy tippee cup or doidy cup from 6 months. The last two weeks she has refused all water, she has reintroduced a mid morning and mid afternoon feed as a result. Not sure how to get her to drink water. Think she may have gagged a bit using the doidy cup the last couple of times and that may have put her off. She definitely drank more from the doidy cup than anything else.
Does it matter that she won't drink water, she is BF? I haven't tried juice as she eats so much fruit I really don't think she needs any more vit C.
She has never drunk from a bottle so I don't want to give water in that. Hoped to go straight to a cup.
