How many sippy cups do you have (toddlers still on milk)

DD is 13 months. Haven't transitioned her to her milk in sippy cups yet, but she does use 1 sippy cup a day for water.

We usually run our dishwasher every other night. So when we do make the transition, I guess we'd need 1 cup for water and then 3-4 for milk per day, right? So a total of 10 cups then if I run the dishwasher every other day?

Re: How many sippy cups do you have (toddlers still on milk)

I am sippy/straw cup obessed!!

I have lots of Take and Toss sippy cups (these are great - but not for travel - will open or crack if thrown and they leak more than regular, valved sippy cups).

I have two Playtex Sport Insulator Sippy Cups (I like these the best)

Two Playtex First Sipster (one at daycare and the other I'm phasing out because it is a "beginner" sippy cup, but liked these a lot)

Two Gerber Sip and Smile Insulated Cups (don't like the valve on these)

One First Years (not crazy about this one either)

Now I'm on a straw cup mission...

I have three Playtex Sport Insulator Straw Cups (like these the best)

Two Munchkin Insulated Backyardigan Theme Straw Cups (I want to return these. They require too much sucking power. I don't feel it is good for DS.

Two Nuby Flip Top Insulator Straw Cups (I want to return these also. I feel the valve in the straw requires a completely unnatural sucking action and I don't like these at all.)

I plan to buy the Take and Toss Straw cups as well for drinking at home.

So you got my answer, plus my review. I hope this help!

I pretty much only use Playtex and Take and Toss.

10. My DS uses around 4 per day. I run the dishwasher every night but sometimes I don't get a chance to unload it in the morning, and I need to be ready to send him with what he needs for daycare.

I have these things called hands. They wash sippy cups and bottles every now and again. You should try it.

We did not transition yet to just sippy cups and I have 2 already. I assume I will need 5-6 per day.

We have always used 3-4 for Kaitee. She gets 2-3 sippy sups of water a day then the other one is for water. I just keep putting water in the same cup with out washing it untill the nighttime when I wash all sippy's and bottles.

We have 4 of the First Years ones that we use for milk or if we go out.

I have about 8 take and toss cups for water or juice and around the house.

I need to get another pack (they are 2 to a pack) of the First Years ones tho.

Re: How many sippy cups do you have (toddlers still on milk)

I probably would have an many as she needs for 1 day and wash them by hand that day and put them in the dishwasher on the other day.

Re: How many sippy cups do you have (toddlers still on milk)

I have a bunch, I honestly can't be bothered with washing sippy cups every single day so I have enough for probably 3 days. I buy a lot of the take n toss type ones (Gerber screw on ones are the best for cup throwers BTW) for home and mainly use the ones with valves when we go out.

It feels like a million, my entire kitchen feels like they are covered in them. Chat Icon I like to give them different kinds and experiment with them.
