hah wriggles thats cute! Max sure knows what to do with a cup, he swiped my icechocolate of the cafe table today, had it grasped between two hands and rim in his mouth tilting it up before i decided the experiment had gone far enough and took it away so i might try him on a regular cup tonight. Also might leave him a bottle of water as he'll pick up and put his sippy cup in his mouth of his own accord so perhaps he'll get the idea with the bottle too. I really don't want him super constimated and doing rabbit poos!]]> Wed, 13 Jul 2011 15:49:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1362108&title=drinking-water#1362108 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361977&title=drinking-water#1361977 Author: Nothing

I used to give DD my pump bottle and she soon clicked on. Got her a sippy cup with a soft spout and she promptly chewed on it so it leaked everywhere.... She now has a straw one, or my drink bottle and im just introducing cups of water, she drinks the bath water with them..... ]]> Wed, 13 Jul 2011 11:55:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361977&title=drinking-water#1361977 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361975&title=drinking-water#1361975 Author: High9

I just left a bottle laying around for Lily and she just did it on her own accord. TBH she drank jack all until I introduced a straw or straw cup... That got her interested! But they all say 9mo+... I gave her one about 7mo. ]]> Wed, 13 Jul 2011 11:53:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361975&title=drinking-water#1361975 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361947&title=drinking-water#1361947 Author: Plushie

How do you get it in them?

DS is not a super pooper, he was a fortnightly man while b/f and appears to be a weekly man while on puree. My doc reckons he's fine and just has a slow system but said to make sure he does have water with his meals to prevent constipation. Easier said then done, right? He has a sippy cup and knows what to do with it - but he either has to suck to get water out (which he doesnt) or it freeflows and he just spits it out. I offered water in a bottle once and he laughed, he's never had a bottle in his life so didnt know what to do with it. I could syringe it into him of course but i was hoping there is a better way. Perhaps he is getting a teeny little bit when he drinks with the cup on freeflow and that is enough?

He hasnt pooped in like 5 days now! Its madness!]]> Wed, 13 Jul 2011 11:03:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39886&PID=1361947&title=drinking-water#1361947
