My son was the same. He didn't know how to suck out of a sippy and didn't want to hold the bottle but our daughter figured everything out really quick. All children are different. He'll get it sooner or later but for now just prop the bottle up with a pillow or blankets.

he dont no what to do with a sippie either.and al he does is scream if you dont hold the bottel for him then when you do give it to him he puts his hands down to the side of him and drinks like there was never anything wrong with him.

i always put my sons hands around the bottle while I held it, he learned pretty quickly by me doing that , he was holding his bottle at just over three months, my gf on the other hand her daughter knows how to hold a bottle but is more content with her holding it for her. Then my nieces never learned to hold a bottle but are fine with sippy cups all babies are different, how is he with a sippy cup??

Babies that age are not lazy. Some are content, but they aren't intentionally lazy. Keep working with him, get a type with handles.

Actually what i did is put a towel under her neck and sort of like prop it up and try to put the baby with her hands to hold the bottle with the towel. Trust me if baby is hungary they will go for the bottle. That work for my daughter. Good luck. Let us know
