My biggest problem is that DS doesn't suck, he bites. So it feels like nothing will work.
DS usually just chews the straw the same way he chews his fingers, but for some reason he sucked on it for a little bit today. Of course he got distracted pooping then went right back to chewing instead of sucking.
I don't think they're recommended anymore, but have you tried a hard spout sippy cup? It would just pour into his mouth if he tipped the cup up enough. And biting wouldn't prevent that, the way it might in a bottle. Could be terrible advice. I'm in uncharted waters here.

Unfortunately I've tried. With that and with higher level nipples, he just freaks out about everything coming at once. I think I'm about to order the mimijumi.

DD got some water out of the 360 today, though she got a bit too much and choked a little (I had filled it up higher so we didn't have to tilt it so far to get to the liquid). She still likes holding the cup herself, with help, she just doesn't have the mechanics down yet.
We have a Playtex training time soft spout sippy cup. He's gotten some water and pumped milk out of it but he most just likes holding it and "chewing" on the spout.

Same here. I have to do most of the holding but he's sort of figured out how to drink from it. He does a mix of chewing and sucking.
