Doidy Cup

[EdithGrantham]

I've heard about the doidy cup on here for weaning purposes, has anyone used it for younger babies? My 3mo DD is EBF currently and I'm thinking of trying her on expressed milk. But I'm slightly worried about nipple confusion with a bottle and I've read that a doidy cup mimics breastfeeding and is better for their jaw development. I'd be interested to hear any advice or experience of others who've tried it.

We had some success with cup feeding DD who was a bottle refuser, it was enough for me to be able to go out for the evening with friends.

The LLL have some info on cup feeding here

Thank you, interesting to see that LLL say it's suitable from birth and safer as it's definitely not the preferred choice! I guess there's nothing to lose by giving it a go.
