I bought several, and at 1, our kiddo protested bottles AND sippies, and wanted to drink directly out of small cups.

So much for being prepared.

FWIW, my favorite ones were the super cheapie plastic ones from the grocery store. She also used the Wow Cup for a few months.

Interested to hear which one your LO likes the best and doesn't leak! We're still searching for the cup that doesn't leak.

The Thinkbaby Thinkster is a good one, but I've found it will leak if it gets dropped...which my toddler does often. The Thermos FOOGO stainless steel cup also works really well, but with milk, the top gets crusty throughout the day. It's the only one I've found that doesn't leak, but the top is plastic.

No advice on cups, but I tend to over-research as well! I did that with prenatals for like a year.

My LO likes the Pura Kiki with the straw top. We started using it for water when she was 6-8 months old, and then buying a second one in a different color was the key to getting her to drink breast milk out of a cup after she turned one.

@rockinghorse: The straw took her a little while to figure out (but we introduced it pretty young, too). I love that the whole thing is stainless and silicone! We get little dribbles sometimes (especially if it's really full), but no big leaks so far. It's also nice that you can order different tops so that it can grow with LO.
