| Re: Bottle to Sippy Cup
I say just keep offering the different kinds that you have. He will eventually warm up to it. I always had luck with the soft spout. It took DS about 10-11 months to take the sippy. DD was faster. Have you tried straws? My kids couldn't do it that young, but my friend's daughter could...she loved them.
Here's another thought...messy, but a thought. Even though DS wouldn't do a sippy at that age, he could drink from a regular cup with his own hands. I started at about 9 months. I gave him a shot glass with a TINY bit of water in it and showed him how. The shot glass is perfect for their little hands. It took about 2 weeks of spilling in the high chair before he started to get it. Then I moved him up to more liquid. And then a real sized glass. I couldn't believe it worked, but I saw it in a book so decided to try it.
Of course this doesn't work for car rides, etc. But it's a thought.
