Other than being able to hold a bigger volume, what else makes this cup for a 12+ month? Does the nipple have a faster flow?

I don't think so. Pretty sure this is just a nuk sippy cup without measuring lines. We just use it for juice.

I think it does, but the beauty is it doesn't spill (unless your child starts chewing on the nipple and it breaks). It's the only sippy cup my son would take. ONLY ONE.

We started using at approximately 3 weeks old. Came with normal flow nipples. Slow flow are available and not spendy

I think it's more of a trainner my son started using it at 12 months and it's still his favorite cup - he's 19 months now.

Its supposed to be for any age. However after a few months it does get tiring to wash all its parts, so I would suggest 4 months max. It is a great product after the baby learns how to use it and I think it is also good for them to work in their patience as it is a lot harder to use than a conventional nipple.

It's not so much that it will leak but it will be harder for her to get the formula/milk/juice if the hole isn't facing the top. The flat part if the nipple should face down. I'm going through the same thing with my boys. But hopefully they will learn.

When you squeeze the nipple you can see if there are small holes or if you fill up the bottle and squeeze hard enough to see how strong the flow is . The small flow will give you a couple of very thin spray. Heavy flow will be almost like from sippy cup. My 11 month old refused to use heavy flow so we continue with the original small I guess it wasn't that hard for him.

I didn't think so but I also didnt use it that often. The nipple itself was so long it seemed to almost choke my son. To me it wasn't much like the breast other than the sucking motion to get the milk out. Once he would suck so much winks get into the nipple it would just pour out.

Hi,I'm not sure about the size, but I do know that if you look in the bottom left corner of the box it shows a drip symbol and should say the flow of the nipple. These that I bought happen to be medium flow and they are still a slower flow than the Tommee Tippees slow flow I bought previously. My son is 7 weeks and likes these much better and has less problems with choking on too much milk. I hope that helps...

Both sizes come with medium flow nipples which are fine to use with newborns. This is my third baby and I will tell you that these are by far the best bottles I've ever used. Good luck Mama!

We went almost straight from the Stage 1 nipple to this and our daughter did just fine. The only problem we had was as she got older we had to remove the silicone insert that makes it spill proof b/c she would suck on it too hard and it would bunch up under the cap. I don't know if that would be a problem with such a young babe but the simple solution there was to just remove the insert. That does, however, make it spill-able. Good luck!

Yes, it is kinda different because you actually have to suck on the cup to get the liquid out. A child should b able to do this. My 12 month old can drink out of this cup, but he turned it upside down and it spilled out. I don't know if I didn't put it together right or if I got a faulty cup.

There is a large button at the top, I don't know about other model, however this one is manual pumping where you press, release and then press, release until you get the amount you need. For a 12 fl.oz. cup, it's usually 3 or 4 pumps.

The bottles come w/2; smaller bottle has "medium" flow (2 holes) & 9oz bottle has "large" flow (3 hole). I could not use either for my LO until he was about 4 months (flowed too fast). I purchased Avent Wide Neck nipples (stage 1/$5 w/o coupon) & used those until then. Fit great, no problems & the ones that came w/bottles, I stored then used as backups when LO needed the better flow; he is 10 mo now & still uses the larger bottle exclusively, when not taking his liquids from sippy cup.

There are designed for babies just learning how to drink out of cups - the top is shaped more like a bottle nipple than a traditional sippy cup. I would say anywhere from 5 months to one year depending on how soon you want to start introducing the baby to a cup and when your baby is ready. Gramma Sharon

Its for the ready to feed 2oz bottles. So I would say. Its more of 0-6 month nipple.

It's good flow but for a "sippy cup". Not really comparable to a bottle. I have 3 of the nuk ones and they are my little ones favorite, even at 21 months old. Hope this helps.

The spout is very similar to a bottle. Just different shaped. If you're baby can handle a fast flow nipple then they can handle this. We still use them at 19 months in the car to keep things clean...even though he drinks out of regular cups now too.
