How many sippies do you have in rotation??

auburnbride2be · August 2009

I am trying not to waste money, but getting by with about 5 sippies is becoming a pain. I tend to over buy. We just retired her soft spout sippies, so I am fighting the urge to go buy a bunch of the hard spout especially because I don't know how long she will even be using a sippy.

P.S. She is in FT daycare and I like to run them through the dishwasher each time. I guess both things are factors.

5. It doesn't feel like enough.

Four soft spout, and one hard spout.

4...it has worked out just fine. However, I dont put htem in the dishwasher. If I did I would definately need more because we only run it about 3x a week

4 and they're all different. I want to buy a couple more of her favorite one.

We have 11 or 12, only because I kept trying different ones to see what he liked and if I could find one that he would take milk from. Three or gour of them we never use, and I put them away.

He still takes 3 bottles a day (he still refuses to drink milk from a sippy) and the rest of the day he drinks water from a sippy. I just refill it as needed. Or if it gets floaters in it, I'll dump it and get him a new one. We use an average of 2/day. I guess when he finally weans from the bottle, we'll use more.

ETA: Oops, I totally missed the 'in rotation' part. So, I guess my answer would be 8.

4, but we don't put them in the dishwasher.

ABout 8. It's more than enough. I put them through the dishwasher after every use.

I think we have 5 or 6 at my house, and my mom has 4 at her house (she watches DD during the day).

I just bought him some of the take-n-toss hard spout ones. I have only opened one pack of three, but will probably be opening the other pack of 5 soon. Maybe you can buy some of those, so you don't have to worry about wasting too much money?

More than will fit in the drawer! I'm also moving toward the take & toss ones now -- they stack really nicely and take up much less space. I'll still probably use the ones with better valves for milk and things I don't want spilled all over, since the T&Ts can drip when thrown araound.

We also have five and I'm planning on buying a couple more. Five isn't enough especially when they get left/hidden in random places and I can't find them for days.

We only have three plus a Foogo Thermos for longer trips out. I'm not too hyper about cleaning them (maybe should be more?). He generally uses one for milk and one for water, and I refill each as needed through the day. If the milk one gets too icky, I'll pull out our extra cup. Then I wash them all at night after he goes to bed. I put them in the dishwasher if I'm running it that night - every 2-3 days. Otherwise I wash by hand.

Three is enough for us, honestly, but I think our routine would be much different if DS was in daycare!
