We started in a Zoli. But I think her first sip ever was from my glass. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-900753 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 09:37:41 +0000 MsLipGloss 900753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chen: I haven't tried a Zoli yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-900745 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 09:35:47 +0000 dolphin 900745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rubies: @chopsuey119: I've been scouring the boards and looks like the zoli cup is a fave. I think I'm gonna order one today! </p> <p>@mslipgloss: That's a cute one! Does your LO prefer the TT sippy over a straw cup? Hmmm maybe I will get both to try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899679 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 18:30:21 +0000 katsupgirl 899679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Officially the first time was probably around 6 months. I've been trying more seriously this week. She's used a straw and a sippy cup yesterday and today. My mom gives her a bottle to play with during the day. I've also tried giving her the sport water bottles since she loves water bottles so much. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899669 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 18:25:44 +0000 MsLipGloss 899669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It took LO a while to be a fan, but now she reaches for her sippy whenever the mood strikes her (I always keep one out for her). She is 10 months (today!), and started probably around 8ish months? We use a TT sippy.</p> <p>ETA: TT with a silicone soft top (picture added) </p> [attach=2207/13/mpa71r.400x400.tommee_tippee_tip_n_sip_cup_300ml.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899665 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 18:24:08 +0000 immabeetoo 899665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chen: We've been offering since the first week or so of solids, in a straw cup. I know he can get water from it, but he likes it much more if I take the lid off and let him drink it like a real cup. So I usually do that at the end of the meal, and let him play with it/the straw otherwise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899615 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:54:11 +0000 chopsuey 899615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS had his first taste of water today! :) I was drinking out of a tervis cup and I gave him a little. He liked!<br /> I gave water to dd with every solid meal she had. We tried a few different sippies but she liked the Zoli best </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899605 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:41:34 +0000 Rubies 899605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When LO was 6 months old and starting solids, we also introduced the straw cup (Zoli) and she took to it right away. From then we started offering water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899554 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:09:55 +0000 autumnlove 899554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 6 months when she ate solids. It took a few days for her to drink it out of a straw cup. </p> <p>I also give my baby (9 weeks) water out of a bottle. Up to 1 ounce a day to fight constipation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-lo-water#post-899543 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:05:17 +0000 dolphin 899543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave my DD water for the first time since we just started solids and she made a YUCKY face and was confused that it was not milk. Haha!</p> <p>When did you first introduce water and how often do you give it to your LO? Do you offer it in a bottle, sippy cup, straw cup, other? </p>
