Transitioning to cups? Check out these pro tips from our friends nurturebynaps !👇

“As a lactation consultant, when out in the field helping parents navigate breastfeeding, we also help them introduce that first bottle. It’s common practice that we help parents pick one bottle and stick with it, as testing out multiple bottles can be expensive and overwhelming for parents, and confusing for babies. But, when it comes to cups, what I think is fun, is that you can really try all different kinds to see what your baby likes, as well as to have them practice. At 6 months of age, you can start putting water in a cup for your baby to explore and practice. Over time, they will start getting good at sippy cups, straw cups then open cups.”

What’s your fav type of toddler cup – sippy, straw, or open?
