Is the flow the same with a reg sippy cup? Having trouble getting 14mo to drink cow's milk and want to try this but worried the flow will be too slow.

The flow is similar to the regular nipple for this bottle, as another mentioned...it does tend to increase over time with use. I've notice two basic sippy cup "differentials: those with no "regulator" insert/diaphragm (like this one) and those with an insert (such as the Joovy Dood ) Inserts tend to be slower than the Philips model shown here.

I am using this for my now 1 y old , I tried many others still it's the best for me. The flow is medium I would say, not too fast ,not slow either. The flow increases after continuous use

Yes, the flow is the same. I don't think you will have a problem. Have you tried a graduating formula instead of cows milk?

It depends....my pediatrician recommended starting my son on sippy cups by his 1st birthday. I started with the sippy part and after 3 days he got it so I moved to the straw and thst only took him one day. However, this cup is horrible for the straw...yes it taught my son howto use it but the pressure bbuild-up made the milk always come up the straw and pour out all over the place. I recommend Munchkin click and lock cups, theyv have a straw cup to and no matter how many times it gets dropped it never leaks! Hope this helps.

Most of the time I can get a pretty stiff froth--almost microbubbles. A few times it's failed and I end up with a small amount of large bubbles. Can't say why the difference. Definitely works better with warm milk rather than cold, at least for me. (I should say that I am limited to using a mixture of part half-and-half and part water; don't have skim milk, which would undoubtedly work better.)

Not at all! We had had for 6 to 7 months and not 1 problem at all. Our son did bite through 1 nipple because we didn't pay attention that he was teething, but that is what can happen with any bottle!I give it a 9.7 out of 10 because I wish they had more schemes other then the two we have found available. It would be nice to have different patter or colors to tell if one is a juice cup and one is a milk etc.I say buy it, you will love them!

We have found if the hole is on the top nothing comes out for my baby. We have not had leaking but she don't get anything if its the wrong way. I love these bottles my baby goes breast to bottle and bottle to breast with no problems. And I think an older baby would prefer the bottle the correct way and have no problem self feeding.

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.

Cherie-In my personal opinion, a slow flow nipple doesn't make it harder for the formula. I started my son on this bottle at a little over a month old, and he got the hang of it within a few days and has had no problem. I've only used the slow flow with him so far and it's pretty awesome. I hope this helps somewhat!

I just screwed the lid on like any bottle or sippy cup. I did not over tighten or under tighten. Just snug. Then they suck on the edge and it comes out. I tried it.... Works great. My 4 and 6 year old kids want one too. I have not tried milk in it yet but it should be fine. No leaks that i have seen.

Hi. This is definitely a no spill spout. It is however, kinda hard to suck the water out. Maybe it's just an issue with mine..I'm not sure why...but in general, the pura sippy is one of the best. Just make sure you get a small one, as they can be a little heavy for a one year old to carry around.

the spill proof cup doesnt have a flow designation but i would say it is fast. It is like a pressure spot. Once baby sucks on it, it opens to release liquid.

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.

If you mean the flow. I would do the medium flow for baby age. Less pull means less frustrated baby equals better fed baby. I never had issues with all 3 babies. I had no spilling issues either. The bottles with the bags use the protective ring that comes with the nipples. The reg bottles no protective ring needed. Hope this helps.

I don't think it's very hard to drink from at all- this cup is valve free and seems to flow well. Still my son's favorite cup and he's 2 and a half now (we've been using this model since 11 months old)!

I love this bottle and spout and have used it since my daughter started drinking water. She's now 3. The original clear spouts ended up needing to be replaced so this new generation blue spout is much better. It mimics more of a nipple as opposed to being a hard spout so assume it's easier for them to manage. My daughter has never had an issue. Also it's probably the safest bottle/nipple on the market. Worth a try for sure! I'd order a few extra as backup if you can. Hope this helps.

I have used both the Tommee Tippee bottle and the Momma and like the momma better. My son was also super gassy and the Tippee bottles let out a lot of milk even with the stage one nipple. I also didnt like that he was able to suck the nipple in. With the momma bottle no matter how hard he sucks the nipple stays intact. He loves the momma as well and latches on immediately.

Child has to suck to get it out, but not super hard like some sippy cups we've had. However, after having ours for about six months, the no spill valve has broken and it pours out. I could just replace it with another valve, but I probably won't bother since I don't let him walk around the house with it to spill it anyway. We only use ours for water because I'm not fond of things that need a bottle brush to reach inside, I never feel like it gets it clean enough anyway. I suppose you could put it in the dishwasher however, which would be easy enough. Overall, I like this sippy cup a lot and would recommend it as one of the better, if not the best sippy cup we've ever used.

You definitely could put baby formula I this, but haven't gone that route since he still uses a bottle for formula. Also, he doesn't chug large amounts from this cup, he just sips from it. If we put formula in it with our little guy, we'd end up with partially drinken portions of formula around the house and it would probably start smelling funky pretty soon. We just use this product for water for our 14 month old. We decided early on not to use the sippy cups, but rather trained him to use a straw early on so that when we're eating at peoples' houses or restaurants, he can just drink from a straw. This product trained him very well. He uses it all the time and it's pretty leak-proof.
