Introducing Tommee Tippey!!!

[elliemac]

Have been trying for ages to get DD to drink from a tommee tippey or something similar. Have bought nearly all available styles and shapes etc. She's not interested at all and keeps wanting her water/juice from a bottle. I know i should probably take the bottle away so that she has to drink from tommee but i just hate the thought of her not having enough to drink. Any help would be apprectiated.

How old is she? What ended up working for us is that I'd make a beaker of diluted juice and just left it lying around. DS ended up 'playing' with it and drinking from it (when I wasn't looking mostly!) so that worked after a while. No pressure...

She is 15 months now. She does take little sips from it now and then but i just think its not enough really. I've tried drinking from them myself and some of them seem quite hard to suck from. She's still little yet i suppose.

my dd never got on with a tommee tippee, hole too small, too much effort. she is fine with any free flowing 3 hole plus beaker, or even an open cup when she's concentrating and there's not much in it! she's 17 months. so if i were you i'd ditch the tommee tippee ad look for a faster flow. avent green spouts with the magic valve taken out are good.

Thanks ruddynorah! I think the problem is that its to hard for her to suck. Will look out for the one you recommended. Funnily enough after me saying that yesterday she's been drinking from the tommee tippee this morning. You would think she knew!!!!
