STCT`s poll Show results | Hide results


Baby-poll poll My daughter is 6 months. My Dr said I can offer a sippy cup. Well the ones I bought are extremely hard to get the liquid out (have to suck really hard). What is a good trainer sippy cup?

We started on these Gerber ones. They come two to a pack. My daughter loved them and transitioning was very easy. Also, we use Avent bottles and they make sippy attachments depending on age and these are my faovrite. Very cheap!

i bought some at the dollar store after spending a small forturne. they were very small, only held 4 oz so her hands could grasp it easily and it wasn`t super heavy because it had so much liquid in it... she just loved them! basically anything without a valve to start until they figure out how to pour out the liquid...

My daughter did better with a straw cup first. Now she`s using a cheap Playtex one from the supermarket. She also has a few Nubys.

Daisy likes the Nuby ones. She doesnt like the ones with handles though.

2 reasons advent sippy cups rock.. if your LO is frusterated and cant figure it out but wants something to drink you can take a nipple from an advent bottle and use the sippy as a bottle and vice versa if you want your LO to use a tippy you can put that on the bottle so it is a little more familiaur. ` Good luck

Munckkin or any type with the clear soft tip like a nipple ~ without the plastic insert for spill proof, those are harder to suck for starting out ~ the ones you want have small slits just like a nipple does and no added insert in valve :)

My daughter likes her Nuby ones. The spout is soft plastic so she can bite it and it collapses together.

We have a Gerber one with a soft spout that was about $4 at Target. Good luck!

I bought the gerber one for my son at 5 months and that`s what he`s used ever since.

I used the Nuby sippy`s from Walmart. Cheap and my daughter really took to them =)

my baby is 13 months old and she still wouldn`t drink from sippy cup :( We are giving her formula and juice/water in Dr. Browns bottles. We are going to try straw cup soon.

  1. Thanks to my twin`s ability to trek down here, my records are straightened out! I will be having my first appointment on February 29th. I will be 10 weeks-ish. Around here that is about when they want to see you. When did you get your first appointment?
  2. What do you think is better (or worse) for kids? TV or video games?
  3. I`m interesed in getting an innotab for my kids. Are the extra downloads pricey? How is the product as a whole?
  4. Thought they were fixing the problem with the profiles? Mine is now starting to disappear and most of my friends profiles are gone. Is it getting fixed or what because its more than a joke at the moment. Maybe its the ads causing the problems because its the only thing that seems to stay when the profiles disappear.
  5. If you had a `favourable` cervix (started to dilate and soft) did a membrane sweep work for you?
  6. Should I buy my sister a Belly Bandit for her shower? She said that is what she wanted when I asked. I just have a hard time spending that much money on some thing she might niot like. Especially because it was me who put the dumb :) idea in her head!! I bought and used one for three out of my four and loved it...but is it for everyone? Or should I throw down the money to something more practical?
  7. Are your children exposed to two hours or less of TV per day? (This includes when your shows are on and they are awake and around at the same time in the same room)


  8. Just finished making a birthday cake for the first time from our baby girl for her daddys bday tomorrow :o)
  9. Extension of last Valentine question..I should clarify that we are having V-day dinner tomorrow alone but still just the fact that he bought our gifts at the same time at the same place bugs the s-it out of me. He knows I like plants and I`m pretty sure he went to a nice nursey and got me one but the fact is he told me he got his mom a small little plant. OMG I fee like I total b-tch but I feel like telling him I know what he probably got me and I do not want anything that you are giving your mom!! But then he wopuld know I snooped and saw where he went on our checking account.
  10. O.k I know this is a off the wall question..Is it weird and selfish of me to be annoyed that my husband has is giving his mom a Vanetine gift and card tonight when she comes over and wants to give me mine too today? I know I`m probably being sensitive and I feel bad that I made the comment `if you give me the same thing as your mom I`m gonna cry`. He said I should`nt ruin the surprise and I told him I was sorry but I just wanted our Valentines seperate because everything includes his family and it`s a day for lovers. Am I....
