My daughter is 20 months, and should already be well off the bottle. Problem is, she was a preemie, and the Dr. prescribed Pediasure for her for weight gain. (bless her heart, she's still not big enough for a front facing car seat.)
She won't drink it out of a sippie cup or a regular glass for that matter because of the Pediasure smell, and I don't really blame her. I went through the deal of not giving her the bottle and thinking she'd get used to a cup, but we can't afford for her to loose any weight. She will drink regular milk and juice out of an adult glass with a straw, so I don't think I'll have problems with the normal liquids.
I was going to wait until the Dr. takes her off the Pediasure before giving up the bottle completely. Is this a bad decision? If so, what's a better way to give it to her? Serious answers please.
