favorite sippy cup for breastfed baby?

[abh5e8]

so dd is just refusing the bottle and i'm going back to work. she is 6 months, will be 7 by the time i'm back full time. i have plenty of milk, no trouble pumping. but needs ideas on how to get her to take it. open to trying a sippy cup. any favorites? especially for EBF babies?

TIA!

At 6 months we moved to a straw cup. We skipped proper sippy cups completely.

The cheap nuby sippy worked the best for my BF babies. They're usually under $2 each, but my kids like them, b/c the part they suck on and the area around it are all silicone, so soft.

Yeah that. We started with the take and toss ones because they don't have a valve. We now use the vital baby ones from Amazon. Easy to drink from, a breeze the to clean and no leaks.

We also do take n toss and the nuby with no valve.

hmm...i could try a straw. we have some. but if you put milk in the straw cup, is it hard to keep clean?

i just ordered a couple of different cups on amazon...hopefully dd and dh can make one of them work.

Sippy cups were such a trial and error thing, ugh. Very frustrating. DD was EBF and wouldn't take a bottle either. Finally found a sippy cup that worked - this one by Nuk: http://www.drugstore.com/nuk-trendline-learner-cup-with-silicone-spout-dot-pattern/qxp349447?catid=182604. We also let her use a straw cup for water and for that, we like the Zoli cup: http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/zoli-bot-cup/3261813. You need to use one of those pipe cleaner tools to make sure the straw gets really clean. Either of these would work (I have both and don't prefer one over the other): http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Browns-Natural-Cleaning-Brush/dp/B0006BAJN6/ or http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Straw-Sippy-Cleaning-Aqua/dp/B004QZBEBY/.

Good luck!

DD2 had great luck with the Nuk Sippy Cup:

We didn't try straw cups with either of my girls until they were a year old and then we used the Nuby ones.

With Dd1 she didn't get the hang of a sippy cup until she had some teeth and then the Take N Toss or the Avent bottles with the green spouts worked best.
