I have this cup and can't figure it out at all blush

It has a weird pin type thing inside the spout, I've just tried drinking from it myself and had to bite hard on the spout just to get the water out - no way my 5mth old could sook that hard! I must be doing something wrong - any ideas?!

no, that's right, you have to bite it to get anything out.
they're crappy though my 3 yr old kind of likes his now lol.

you're much better off with a free-flow cup like the super cheap TT ones

take it back. the spout bit just unscrews which means one soaked through baby angry i took it back and said i wanted a refund cos how could i give it a baby to use when it was so easy for him to get the spout off.

these are the absolute best cups IMO. you can buy them separately, not as part of the set.

had them for ds1 and they were perfect, no valve and a long soft spout, abd just one small hole so it doesn't come out too fast

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
