Our breast-fed baby, now eight months old, has little interest in solid
foods, liquids in bottles, or other enticements. However, we've found
two pretty-reliable ways to get her to take fluids, especially when they
are really needed (like when she had the flu). She likes to be squirted
in the mouth from a squirt bottle full of water, a little at a time (or
else she enjoys blowing it all back out). She also likes a closed-lid
plastic cup with a rectangular nipple projecting from one edge, though
the same warning applies.
