Hi, I'm -mk i'm new.... I'm going to try my LittleOne with a Doidy cup (did I spell that right) the non spill cup things with a spout and and valve encourage baby to suck--that's how they can get liquid out so it's a misnomer to call them a sippy-cup as I've heard--they're sucky-cups! The doidy cup sounds like a great idea LittleOne--LO alredy grabs at my water glass when I have her on my lap when we eat out--Damn she's strong! I think she's fascinated by the cold wet smoothness of the cold glass to be honest--but she would tip it everywhere if I didn't help her hold on to it--and even then much goes down her chin and front How do I post my own question/introduce myself BTW? -mk
