How long did it take to transition your little one to a sippy cup or regular cup? My DD will not take a sippy cup and keeps biting the nipples of her bottle causing them to have holes. I did take away her pacifier about three weeks ago and she is whining about it but is okay so far. Just trying to get some ideas.

I’m embarrassed to say how long my kids had a sippy cup. Bump for others.

No time at all. When DS was old enough to hold one I gave him one, it wasn't to replace the bottle, just to get him used to the idea. When I took the bottle away he didn't care since he was already used to having a cup.

I would try a straw cup or a cup with a hard spout for your DD. Straws help build muscle tone in the mouth which can help with speech as well later on.

A minute. I just took them all away and only gave them a cup. When they got thirsty enough, they drank.

How did you get him/her to understand how to use it?
Ds is 10 months and he can't figure it out lol. He keeps looking for a nipple or spout...something to suck on

I always did straw cups after a year old. I hate traditional supply cups.
