AW: Straw cup success!!!

Hooray!

I posted a while back about how C didn't "get" the whole sippy cup thing...we just stuck with giving her water in an open cup and she was doing pretty well with it. On a whim tonight I decided to offer her water in her straw sippy and it was like a lightbulb went off! She drank from it purposefully and loved it :)

Now I can leave the house and not be so stressed about whether she'll take BM while I'm out (well, hopefully she won't decide the straw cup is just for water...) so YAY!

Re: AW: Straw cup success!!!

  • Awesome! What kind of straw cup is it? My bottle hater apparently is a sippy hater too :(

  • That's fab. Do let us know what cup it is.

  • @snowgirl427 same here! Just like with a bottle, she'll suck on the sippy as long as nothing comes out of it. Once that milk gets in her mouth, the cup turns to lava and she must get rid of it ASAP!

  • It's the straw cup from the lansinoh momma line. I think it's a little harder to get out so she doesn't get a big mouthful and just dribble it out, which she did with the open cup and the occasional accidental mouthful from a regular sippy :) The straw is nice and chewable so she used to just gnaw on it but she was so proud of herself when she figured it out!

  • We haven't tried the Lansinoh one, but my LO loves the Zoli Bot straw cup. It has a weighted straw, so if the cup is flipped or on its side the straw follows. It doesn't leak and has a built in, retractable lid. ;)
