4 month old sippy cup?

My gorgeous daughter is only four months old but thinks she is a lot older (I should get used to that, right?!). She has started holding her own bottle and trying to feed herself... to the point that she gets a bit frustrated when I have to help her out because she can't hold it up far enough/long enough. She is mostly breastfed/expressed breastfed but I have had to introduce the odd bottle of Aptamil in a bid to postpone weening (like I said, she thinks she is 6 months old...). She takes stage 3 Tommy Tippee teats and can sit with support - she gets up there independently for a while but we're trying not to let her keep doing for too long!!
Are there any handled bottles/sippy cups that infants younger than 6 months can use? Or is it really 'bad'?!

Tommy tippee do sippy cups suitable from 4 months, you should be able to pick them up pretty much anywhere that sells baby stuff, I've picked them up in our local co-op and seen them in tesco and asda

Best one is the Tommee Tippee free flow cup from Poundland. A whole £1. Brilliant.

The doidy cups. Mine used with our help from 4 months for water. They hated bottles and lidded cups as ages to get stuff out
