Alright ladies. Can someone please tell me how I can help Lucy understand drinking from a sippy? She either isn't thirsty, isn't getting it, or just doesn't care. She likes to play with the cup and chew on it, but she WILL NOT drink from it. I usually just have water in it, but I've put breast milk in it so maybe she'd understand, but no. I've held it like a bottle for her so maybe she'd figure it out, but she just choked herself because she just wanted to chew on it. Lucy winds up sopping wet and has a great time, but I can't do bottles forever.
I have some Nuby cups and a Tommee Tippee cup. Is there something better or easier? What am I missing?

To make you feel my love.
A does really well with a straw cup. We have the Playtex cup and another cheap straw cup but our favorite is the Zoli Bot cup. They are expensive and a pita to clean but the weighted straw is awesome. No matter how A holds it she can get mi
What about just a regular cup that you help her use? I read somewhere (I think either Lucie's List or Baby Bargains) that they don't need sippy cups-- it just shifts the dependence to another object and is still bad for their teeth.
