Water

I will fill up my baby’s tiny cup with 2 ounces of water when I remember with Meals.

He goes insane for it!! He is obviously learning so if I were to guess only about half an ounce actually makes it down. He starts screaming and wants more. I had to start giving it at the end of his meal because if I give it with his food, he will only want the water. I am mostly doing it so he learns the mechanics of the cup.

The other night he started getting so upset when I took a cup away that he was screaming so hard he was turning red. He is literally trying to drink like he has been stuck in a desert and is dehydrated. He definitely is not though – he’s drinking the same amount of milk.

Has anyone else gone through this? I’m thinking maybe he is just having fun with the cup?

I make too much money for assistance (recently divorced) and too little for $135 sessions (local rate I’ve found here) or almost $400 a month with better help. I’m recently a new mom and struggggling and have no insurance. Anyone have recommendations for somewhat affordable therapy ?
