Re: [BCautism] Help with my 23 month old

Well, every child is different but for us, we got rid of all the sippy cups but 1.  Throughout the day we allowed our son to only drink from a "big boy" cup.  He was only allowed to have his sippy cup first thing in the morning.  When it was gone the cup was put up.  If he chose NOT to drink from a big boy cup, then he didn't get anything to drink...(he never got dehydrated) He'd finally give in and drink from a standard cup.  HE did resists this at first but like all things, he adjusted.  Just have patience and refuse the urge to give in.  This should also help her start eating more also.

Hello I'm new to this group and new to autism. My daughter is almost 2 and insists on having MANY sippy cups throughout the day. She would rather drink than eat and can not go by a cup (see one) without wanting a drink. Has anyone out there experienced this? And do you have any advice for me? Thank you
