Cups

[ailbhe]

So. Emer is breastfed, and self-feeds solids; I can't remember when her older sister learned to drink from a cup, though. She understands a normal cup fine, but spouted ones seem to confuse her. Anyone else got a breastfed baby - no bottles - and any idea when non-spill drinking is likely?

I haven't yet mastered non-spill drinking ;-) Elijah only wanted proper cups from about 8 months - I just used to give him tiny shot glasses and refill a lot - 20ml getting spilt doesn't matter. He was fine by a year. The others were happy with sippy cups (tried to avoid the no-spill valve ones) and were ok with non-lidded cups by about 18 months.
