Hetal, Sheeja i want to introduce strawcups.
which brand you are using ? plz suggest.

Thanks. Hetal replied. nirja had her juics,water in nuby strawcups,,,and cows milk first from sippy and thn glass,,after 1 year...
i thought in straws the milk fats might make all sticky to cleann..so i wanted to avoid that..as it is after weaning from sippy, again to straw and then cup,,m already tired of all these weaning part.
also, the cleaning part was easier than i expected,,nuby straw is detachable and strght just like simple straw,,, you can detach the two straws,from the cap itself, gently though,,and put them to dishwasher basket(the one we use to keep the bottle caps and tiny stuffs),,i place the basket horizontal that the spikes of dishwasher( the one that gives section so that you can place dishes in between them on the top rack),,and in that way spikes comes out of the holes of basket,,i will place the straws on those pipes..the straws dont fall during the washing,,because the basket is close and they fit just perfectly in it,,,,at the same time they are washed..i think it dpends on type of dishwasher you use,,,otherwise, yes its a pain to wash it seprtly......

nirja learned her drinking in nuby strawcups,in 1.5months,,she was comfortable thn she started the ordinary straw,,now she drinks with oridinary water bottle with those tiny locking system,,,so i guess it depends on baby as well as brand you use,,,

hope this helps... Sheeja replied. hi Seema, i first introduced strawcup when Trisha was like 12 months old. I gave disposable straws. That was soo easy. She will take some milk without straw and remanining with straw.

Then i bought Munchkin strawcup. But i suggest its a big headache job to clean the starws.There are 2 straws to attched to the cup. one straw has direct hole and other has a block with a zigzag cup(spill proof). so cleaning that is veyr difficult.

My opinion, start with disposable straws .That is easy to suck than these spil-proof strawcups.
