Re-bottle habit
by: Anonymous

my son (who has spd and is very resistant to change) was very difficult to get off the bottle. i tried several times, doing different things, several different types of sippies and cups, etc but nothing worked. i finally had to make up my mind that no matter what, i was not going to cave to the power struggle. it took two and a half weeks before he would take milk from a sippy, but he finally did it. i think this is not a bad change to enforce, not easy but not bad. it's not like you're your child to eat something you know they have a texture issue with, it's more about change in what they are used to and anticipating. good luck.

Some children with sensory difficulties, are rigid in the changes. As regards nutrition, so it's important. And considering that your attempts were unsuccessful. I would wait and assess even when the child will be more reasonable.
