Got Milk?

I think I may have found the best possible training sippy cup out there!
It's a Nuk Orthodonic with Air Flow sippy... got it at Wal*Mart.. it's got a soft silicone (maybe it's latex), spout that works similar to a nipple but is angled like a sippy and baby can hold it by himself.
Evan tried this cup soon after we got home from the hospital last week and loved it immediatly! He is feeding himself now, between nursings.. I can't begin to tell you how much time this seems to free up for me already.

This was taken at the beginning of a diaper change.. notice there's about 5 ounces of milk in the cup.




This is at the end of the diaper change.. I did have to use cream and walk away to wash my hands, zip him up, play with his hair....so let's say it was a 5 minute change...
Notice the milk is almost gone.



The flow of milk is probably similar to a stage 2 nipple and since it has the air flow system you don't have to worry about having to take it out of the mouth to release trapped air. The handles are soft and are easy to hold as well.

I LOVE this cup!!!
