Getting baby to drink from a sippy cup

[missskipton]

I've been trying to introduce DS 7 months to a sippy cup, but he seems to be having none of it!

Does anyone have any tips?

Yes give him a break. Then try again after 2-3weeks.
He will do it when he's ready.

my son refused to drink from anything but a bottle until he was 9 months. Then one day he started drinking from every drink container (beaker, cup with straw, normal glass...)
Just keep leaving him with the cup and one day he’ll get it.

Try it with a straw

Doidy cup? It's open, but angled so they don't have to tip it far before it reaches their mouths. My daughter loved hers.

@blueskiesbrighteyes I have one with a straw but he can't figure out that he needs to suck up to get anything out!

@missskipton he’ll get the hang of it one day. If you’re worried about it, I’d try a few different types of cups and with beakers we removed the bit that makes the water flow slower.

I'd try a free flowing lidded cup before a straw cup

I brought so many cups because my ds wouldn't drink out of it. Then suddenly last week he decided he would. Not every meal but still. He is 10 months so its taken 4 months!

He'll get there! It took my seven month old about five days to get the hang of a straw but he's a champion at it now
