I use sippy cups in cars and outside only, but even then I tend to use "sports" bottles instead as they close and are less likely to cause speech problems. At home my kids use normal cups, from 6 months....Show more

We switched over at 13 months. He did well until bedtime. It took him about 3 or 4 days to adjust but he took to it well after this. Try the nubby or munchkin cups with the soft spout. They are easier on teething babies. Good luck....Show more
