Oh, dear - yes I HAVE heard of this happening - and the good news is that you likely have a very bright- and type -A personality who will be President one day. But for now:
Try
( oh;, you will think I've lost my mind) the most-like-a-bottle sippy cup you can find - even an open cup that Hubby holds for her.
Any chance she can go to work with you??? --- I know that doubles up your child care quilt- but she may not be ready to make this transition
It's so hard, dear heart-- babies don't always agree with our plans --- and they have their little ways to say ''' I said '''' NO!'''' ---- and sometimes we have to allow them to know their own bodies and their own temperatments best.
I'll be praying for all of you
Blessings,

( 36 years ago - my breast fed daughter - then 10 months old---quite unusual to nurse back then) - went on strike when I was injured in an auto accident- and REFUSED to take any kind of bottle or cup from my Mom- who finally spoon-fed her - God be praised I was ''' only''' in the hospital 2 days and refused any meds' that made my breast-milk bad for her-----oh the surgoen was furious ''' you'll NEVER be able to nurse her again- why are you so stubborn?''' to which I replied ''' this is no way to wean a thinking, feeling, remembering person-- if I can't nurse again- there's (he meant my milk would never come back in-- nonsense - he was totally off the mark) no problem.'''
she nursed for another 6 months and then weaned quite happily--.
