we have the nuby straw cups and recently they have been leaking more and more...they never did that before.  Do the cups need tobe replaced every so often? Is there another straw cup out there that doesn't leak?  Thoughts/opinions...thanks so much!!!

    I'm not sure which Nuby ones you have.  We've found that the ones with the flip lids  leaked fairly often for us after using them for about 2 months, but the ones without the lid worked better.  The later are beginning to leak now, but usually it's because we haven't lined up the knobs perfectly, or in the case of one, she has bitten through the straw so it doesn't completely close.

    If you want another brand with a flip lid that works, I like the First Years Insulated Straw Cup.  The straw opening on it is incredible larger than the Nuby though.  I also purchased these at a Tupperware party recently and have been amazed at how well they work.

    Hmmm, our flip lid straw Playtex brand also leak and we stopped using them.  Maybe it is the flip lid that is the culprit.
