Oh sorry Kami. Have you tried a sippy cup. My kids went right into those. Good luck

My advice is to go cold turkey. She'll drink it if she's starving. Or Wait another six weeks and move her right into whole milk. She gets enough dairy from yogurt, cheese, etc. to make up for it. At 1 they only need 6 oz. of dairy/day. Good Luck...and thanks for your sympathy regarding Scouts. );

Here are some things I have heard and witness from others.
*Cold Turkey (you disappear for a couple of days)
*Sippy cups (try a variety of styles to see what she likes the best-I remember Lexi would only take the ones that had straws in them.)
*Paint your nips a different color to change the look and taste of them. (my step mother said this did the trick for her son that nursed forever).
It will all work out. Are you guys getting excited about your Disney trip?
