When to stop bottles and what to use instead

Question

When are you going to stop giving your baby milk from a bottle? What will you use? Sippy cup? Straw? 360 sipper? Why?

Answer

My guy was primarily breastfed so we cut out bottles entirely at 8 months old.  My formula fed daughter, I cut them out right after her first birthday.  Our speech pathologist said open cup is best (we just switched to that at 17 months) but straw cup and 360 are the next best for healthy oral development

Answer

I hate the Munchkin 360 cup because it leaks. I use the Nuk Learner Cup. I had my son off bottles around 13-14 months. He’s almost 20 months and still uses this cup plus straw cups. I will use the Munchkin 360 for water, but nothing else since it gets everywhere.

Answer

Once she turned one she used a sippy

Answer

My daughter was breastfed and refused the bottle, but once we started giving her water with solid foods, we started with an open plastic cup when she was 6 months old. Then changed to a small, normal drinking glass after she was 10 months. Main reasons were that the speech therapists in Finland don't recommend sippy cups anymore and our daughter preferred the open cup to the cup with a straw. 😊 So far no broken drinking glasses and she is 2 years old. 🙊
