    My 15 month old is refusing to drink cow's milk. I am still breast feeding him and he is least interested in switching to cow's milk.
    I introduced cow's milk after his first bday as per doctors recommendation, so far I tried plain boiled milk,honey, sugar , nuts& raisins mixed in milk everything works only for a couple of days.
    I have tried offering milk in glass and sippy cups, couple of sips max, ones he realizes its not water and its milk he stops right away.
    Please suggest ways to get him interested.

    Though he refuses , please keep giving him daily at least few spoons.. Eventually he will start drinking slowly . It worked for my son who is also 15months old

    Yes, please keep going. If he drinks two sips be it. My DD took 1 year to finally accept. Now she drinks it herself. I quit many times and supplemented with other calcium sources, but kept at it with some friends suggestions. So keep offering, your child will eventually accept.
