bottle to sippy cup ?

posted 26th Jun
hey ladies! my son is 3 days shy of 6 months, he has been eating cereal since he was right at 4 months, started stage one foods at about 4.5 months and just started stage two foods about 2 weeks ago. he is sitting by himself and has been for about 3 weeks. with mealtime he has been getting juice with water in a sippy cup...for the past week or so i have been giving him his formula in a sippy one feeding a day. well today i was with him all day and every feeding he took the sippy cup just fine...even his night night feeding. everything i have read says if they are ready then the sooner the better for weaning. please give me your expereinces and opinions BUT PLEASE DO NOT CRITICIZE ME i am simply asking because i do not know.
Thanks!!!

I gave my LO the sippy once at 6 months and she took to it instantly. So she has been drinking from her sippy exclusively since then. She is now 9 months and drinks from a hard spout sippy or a straw sippy.

If hes willing to take the sippy why not go to the sippy....My son started a sippy at about 9 months and he did really well with it. I dont think its going to hurt him to be on a sippy strictly. . as long as he eating enough why not

Definitely! I believe that kids do things when they are good and ready. This is just one less thing you will have to worry about breaking him from.

yeah i think today he drank about 22-25oz of formula...which is about normal for him...

I started introducing the sippy cup at 4 months old. I just thought she would play with it and it would be a couple months until she took to it. But she took to it right off the bat. Needless to say she has been on the sippy cup for the past 2 months and is a pro now lol. (she is 6 months old).

I started out w/ an ounce of water just to see if she would take it. Then I started putting her formula into it. You can put whatever you want in there.
