spinoff to straw sippy cup
whats the benefit of giving them a straw sippy cup rather than a soft spout...DD is 7.5 months old and using a soft spout sippy cup, should I switch her over to a straw one?

Re: spinoff to straw sippy cup
my DD at first couldn't figure out she needed to tip the cup to drink from it. (she never drank from a bottle) So the straw was so easy for her to learn.

I read somewhere that straws are better for speech, and that spout cups can cause a lisp... but don't quote me on that!
Landon uses both types of cups, spout for milk and straw for water.

oooh interesting, shes tipping it sometimes, but not always, maybe i'll try a straw cup and see how she does with it....

All the Speech therapist I work with recommend the straw cups to help with speech and I also read sippy cups can sometimes lead to tooth decay
