Holy Sippy Success

Caroline has been drinking out of a Flip n Sip for a while now but has never been too enthusiastic about the sippy and would never drink milk from it. Last weekend one of my friends had this cup

After looking at it, I decided to get one for Caroline. I knew she was interested when she was sitting in the shopping cart trying to drink from it through it's plastic wrapping (did I just say something in another post about her being a wunderkind?). When I finally gave it to her to drink out of, it was love at first site. She has been drinking anything and everything I give her from it. She carries it everywhere. This morning she didn't even nurse because she was busy drinking milk from her new sippy.

Re: Holy Sippy Success

  • That is awesome that you found one that she loves!!!

    My MIL just commented when she came over at lunch time about Sydney having yet another sippy. I said, "Well, when I find one she likes, they will all go in the trash except for that one. And I'll buy five more of the same." The one we picked up recently is pretty good though. It is a Nuby "sport bottle". It's a hybrid between a bottle and a sippy with a soft "straw". Annoying to have to keep buying them.

  • Yup that's the exact same one Simon has for milk!  Make sure you take it apart and rinse it out every night or else the milk hardens and sticks to the inside of the straw and it's hard to clean.

    If I could the money back for everything we have bought in trial and error experiments with her, I could buy myself a new wardrobe.

  • I think that's great!  Aaron still only will drink water from a sippy cup and he only likes the Nuby Flip-n-Sip.  I bought him a Dora Munchkin cup too and he just likes to play with it?won't drink a thing.

  • Caroline, will you please tell Charlie how much fun it is to drink out of a straw sippy??

    So far, all that really works with us is those cheap disposable ones with no backflow control.  He does well with his morning juice in that.. but that's kinda it.

    We have the flip and sip too. Sydney likes it but she wants to tip it back like every other one. She doesn't understand not to - no matter how many times I show her :(
