I love straw cups. My first daughter refused a bottle after a couple of weeks, but by 6 months could drink out of a straw cup perfectly. It looks like my third is on the same path at 5 months. My favorite cup is the magmag cup by Galtak. You can find it at http://www.galtak.com. It has a GREAT soft straw and the cup has handles, too. The straw is only 2 pieces and is easily cleaned with a pipe cleaner or Dr. Browns’. It can leak as there is no valve, but the top closes over the straw to more or less prevent this when not in use. I HIGHLY recommend this for young babies as the lack of valve makes it easier for them. Anyway, my kids are proof that a 5 or 6 month old can drink 6 ounces of milk out of a straw cup and a bottle is not necessary!

[...] For more information on straw sippy cups check out the mom crowd. They did a review of sippy cups with straws. I also learned that sippy cups with straws are better for children than traditional sippy cups with spouts.

Our little one went from boob to sippy cup straws,too. The only problem I had was getting the dishwasher cleaned, dried milk out of the straw. I recently started using Dr. Brown valve cleaners. They fit perfectly in the straws!

I am thinking of trying a straw cup with my 6 month old. It will replace the Playtex Nurser (w/ diaposable liners) that she uses now. My question is how do you guys warm up the milk?? As she drinks from breastmilk from the fridge. Right now, I warm up the milk with a steamer used for disposable liners. Thanks~
