Hi,


The health visitor has recommended by 13 month old starts taking her milk from beakers, has anyone got a good recommendation for a first one? Apparently as close as possible to a bottle teat is good, and I'm guessing it's better to keep it separate from the water sippy cup. Also, I'm a bit hesitant about converting the bedtime milk into a beaker, is that really essential? It just seems more comforting from a bottle.

I've ended up using a bog standard sippy cup, different colour from her water cup - but my daughter never took a bottle so didn't have that particular dilemma. It did take a long while, and several different purchases, to drink from the cup (any cup!), but we got there in the end.
At 16 months have just dropped the bedtime BF and have been offering a little beaker of milk instead to ease the transition. We have just given the milk in a normal sippy cup - the same sort as we give water in - and all is going well. But like oimissus' little one, Baby Knomester has never had a bottle, so I'm not sure whether that makes any difference.

    • Place your on-screen cursor over the name of the sender, the sender's actual email address should appear, often with scammers it comes up with  a very unbusinesslike address. Failing that, you should be able to speak to Virgin and ask if legit, Microsoft on the other hand I wouldn't bother trying to contact...
    • Bit hard to do that in the middle of the night without causing even more disturbance to other neighbours than the original barking! Are you sure you need to provide an address? There must be loads of instances where it's very hard to trace the source of a noise, and I certainly wouldn't want to be roaming around by myself in the middle of the night trying to track it down! It does need to be triple glazing, not double. I was told that it's what they use for office windows at Heathrow, but I've no idea if that's true. It doesn't make the room completely soundproof, but it does make a huge difference. There must be no gaps anywhere, even very thin ones, where noise could get through.
