I've tried giving Rowan a little expressed breastmilk in a cup a couple of times over the past week. I can't keep the valve in (the thing that makes it spill-proof) because he hasn't learned that, when it's in, he needs to suck on the spout to get the milk out. So, it's a bit messy. But he did drink a little (with a lot of help from mom -- he can't handle the cup alone without a total milk mess). We'll keep practicing. He now knows that the milk comes out of the spout, so that's a start!
