Hi
I am not sure but toddlers have a mind of their own.Maybe try something different like putting in nesquick or something that gives flavors to milk.
And also try to follow what Radhika suggested.

Hi selvi

Didn't get the message..have u just switched to whole milk?
was he on formula before?
Was he feeding with bottles before and now u r transitioning to sippy cup?
if u r going thru transition of from formula to whole or from bottles to sippy cups, baby will take time to adjust, so be patient or go thru the transition slowly. one feedign at a time.
If he was drinking whole milk for past few months and suddenly stopped, it could be just tendency to play more or he must be having either throat or ear infection becoz of which its difficult to swallow..is he eating well? or drinking juice or water well? that will give u clues.
It could be anything sore throat, tummy upset or just not hungry.. or nto liking the taste of new milk/cup if u have started.
If he is eating fine, u can give him yogurt/dahi/cheese cubes...any sort of calcium is fine. if he is not eating or drinking, then only do u need to worry..then i would look for signs of being sick.
Hope u figure it out..or give us a bit more info as to waht exactly has been changed or how he was before that u see the change so we can try to help u.
Thx
Radhika
