What age did you successfully introduce a 360 or straw type sippy cup to an EBF baby?

Question

Any tips for introducing one?
Did your baby take a bottle before introducing the cup? If so, did the cup replace their bottle or did you use both?

Answer

Accidentally hit the wrong answer. I think he was about 9 months?

Answer

9 months I gave her a weighted straw cup with water. Worked great, I still nurse a few times in a 24 hour period and she has access to the cup all day. She is 14 months and still isn't great about tipping back the 360 cup, so we use the st4aw one. No bottle ever

Answer

6 months for us with a 360! But he played with it more than anything so every morning I’d get up and give him something to drink and just let him go to it if he wanted and one day when he was about 7 months old when he crawled to it and actually started drinking out of it. He didn’t take to a straw until he was almost a year.

Answer

7 months he really started using tugged 360. Put your finger against the rim while they have out in a drinking position. Do that a few times a day until they've figured it out. Babies can only have 2 oz/ day

Answer

My LO is 6 mo & we recently introduced the 360 cup with meal times. He does pretty well, but sometimes needs a little help getting the angle right. He doesn’t drink much ~ 1oz of water a day, but it’s really just for practice. He rarely gets a bottle, maybe 1 or 2 a week.

Answer

Six months. Munchkin weighted straw cup. And eventually the 360 cup months later

Answer

I used a regular open cup and just put a little water in it. We used a sippy occasionally but I prefer to use glass.
