Default Trying to get rid of the bottles!

My baby is a little over a year old and we are trying to get her off the bottles. She will drink water and juice from a cup like a pro but not her milk. Any ideas on how to get her to take milk in the cups as well?

How about trying to have her take half the milk in a cup and half in the bottle, then slowly change it so more milk ends up in the cup. She can do the bottle first, then the cup, and as she progresses you can keep reminding her of what a big girl she is. Do you have sippy cups?

Ultimately it might come down to the point that you just have to take it away. That you have to tell them its just the way its going to be, and it won't take more than a day or two for her to get used to it.
