DB is 7 months. Eats solids 3x per day and has bottles too. Currenly I use Avent and they are fed to him. should I start using sippy cups? he doesn't really try to grab the bottle righ...
(more)
tnow but that's probably because I haven't tried teaching that, ive just gone with the flow. Is it time for sippy cups and which ones do I get? So many out there with so many reviews going both ways.

- or maybe straw cups? 12-9-2009 11:27am
- How would maneuvering a straw be easier than sipping from a cup? I'm so confused on what to do!-op 12-9-2009 11:30am
- My ped would say to move toward sippy cups and away from bottles asap. 12-9-2009 11:27am
- ^^^and my ped also says that straw cups promote language skills. But I don't get that part. 12-9-2009 11:28am
- idk but how much formula is db taking? mine is also having solids 3xs/day and the formula intake is really dropping. 12-9-2009 11:28am
- it is dropping, he has about three 6-7oz bottles per day 12-9-2009 11:29am
- np - what did he have before? 12-9-2009 11:29am
- 4-5 bottles a day same amount 12-9-2009 11:30am
- I don't think you need to switch to sippys for his milk, but you should start introducing water in a sippy. We like the Weil Baby sippy, signed mom of a 7mo too. 12-9-2009 11:28am
- When do you do water? 12-9-2009 11:28am
- with the solids, it really only amounts to a few sips at each meal but it helps prevent constipation and allows them to learn to drink from a cup 12-9-2009 11:30am
