Rec your sippy or straw cup

[Deleted]

i saw a few recs in a thread the other day, but wanted to see if more people would respond to a separate thread.

LO is only taking a sippy about half the time we offer it to him. It's a problem because he's always constipated and needs the water to help him. We've tried Playtex and Tommee Tippee sippy cups, but I'm ready to try others. I'm also curious if he would do better with a straw.

So what's your LO's favorite cup? Links or pics are appreciated!

J's favorite is the Munchkin click lock sippy cup. It's a soft spout and the handles are really easy for him to grab:

We just started using the BPA free Grow with Me training straw cup by Born Free and E loves it. The straw is seems durable and E is definitely a chewer. Leaked a little when she was throwing it around but was just a few drops. We tried sippy cups and she couldn't get the hang of those.
Here's the born free straw cup we are using:

Nuk cups worked great for James

[babycaps]

We use the munchkin straw cup. NOT great leakage wise, but awesome for the kid who wants to still lay down and eat. The weighted straw is awesome.

We are also using a doidy cup to let him learn how to drink from a cup and he's doing GREAT with that.

HOLY SHIT THAT PICTURE IS HUGE!!!! I'm SO sorry!

Edit, OK, was able to shrink down the picture   Damn I LOVE this website!!!!  It's way better than bump features!

non chewed and destroyed by puppy ones.

This is the only one he likes & he LOVES it. Uses it non-stop, is easy for him to use (standing, a lot of the time).

We plan to try weighted straw cups soon too. Maybe for water, since he loves water (& currently gets breastmilk in his sippy). We also have a doidy cup which he likes to use for water, but it's messy.

(edit link - we certainly did not pay $16 for one cup! HAHA. Corrected with the 2-pack we bought)

[bennieangel]

PS - we tried like 4 before this one? I still have them stashed for when he's bigger thinking that maybe he'll like them then.

The Nuk cups! I want to try the straw one that babycaps uses! That looks awesome with the weighted straw!

The amount of money we've spent on sippy cups over the last three years for this reason is insane. My dog loves them!

[younglove316]

The Nuk one has worked the best for us so far.

Of course each kid seems to have a different preference. With DS1 Tommee Tippy cups with the soft spouts were my favorites. He did well with them and they didn't really leak. His daycare used the take and toss ones with the spout and all of the kids seemed to do ok with them.

My twin who takes bottles is struggling with the cup but this one kind of works for him:

The other twin who doesn't take bottles really likes straw cups. We have the one babycaps posted and another one by munchkin, I think. I just tried these out yesterday and she really started getting the hang of this type of cup:

DD drinks water out of this one: www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0031E1GEG/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1422638101&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&dpPl=1&dpID=31g%2Ba5Z8jPL&ref=plSrch

I love the weighted straw. What kind of cup do you plan on using when you switch to cow's milk? It seems like a straw would be difficult to clean. Maybe we'll do a sippy for milk?

^^DS hated all that shiz. I finally tried the basic Take & Toss sippy cups, which he is freaking obsessed with. He barely has to suck on them for the water to come out, so it was easiest for him to figure out how to use it. www.amazon.com/First-Years-Spill-Proof-Sippy-Ounce/dp/B003NVVK4S/

I also *just* bought these awesome-looking sippy tops that you can put on ANY cup. I don't have them yet, but they sound cool. www.figgyfuzz.com/silikids-s/2040.htm

We use Take N Toss. They're cheap. I don't care if they get destroyed. And like yalllow.....non-puppy destroyed cups are the best. Haha

We used to use Nuk cups. We stopped though because dd is a strong sucker and the silicone would get sucked in when she drank.

We've used the Nuk one as well. Started using that one around 5.5-6 months. It was a great beginner cup because the spout is silicone.

The Munchkin weighted straw works well for us as well. My other fav straw cup is the safe sippy

So cool! I'll have to check these out!

DD prefers straws. We mostly use the munchkin weighted straws (babycaps pic) but also a presidents choice straw sippy. The PC cup doesn't leak at all but DD prefers the munchkin.

This is our favorite. It's a training cup and she kinda has to bite/push down and suck. It doesn't leak and it it kinda like the wow cup.
