(Part 3) Best toddler feeding supplies according to redditors

Found it in a two pack on Amazon after digging through Google images as a currently unavailable item. Not sure if this helps, but here's the link

Edit: it's being sold on Ebay and looks like it ships from Lakewood, New Jersey, USA

Edit 2: I sent this info with the links through the Message link in the AutoMod comment, and it looks like it went through

We like silicon. I don’t like the metal ones either. I just replaced our plastic cups with these & the kids have adjusted to no straws pretty fast. You can do a straw in then if you want. They just like to pretend drink coffee.

Breast milk or formula popsicles. Freeze in a drop shape like this then put in a silicone feeder

Maybe try spoon feeding? It’s nowhere near a nipple shape, but it’ll get food in his belly. There are ones where you can load them up with purées and squeeze out a bit at a time. The one I had is a super deep spoon, so it’d hold liquids fairly well.

Fingers crossed for you!!

Lol glad to help! I have definitely hi-jacked my son's cups before and had them in bed with me. Especially if you're also having snacks ;) Netflix and headphones ftw. My fiance makes fun of me when he sees me drinking out of it. I think the fact that it's for babies makes it weird for him haha like I'm too old to be using it or something. NONSENSE!


These are the adult ones I saw on Amazon, I haven't tried them though.

Something about faster flow for adults haha

Or they can get it for half the price from a non-shady retailer.

We use Take N Toss and 360 cups, which are both plastic. They work well for us so I haven't felt the need to branch out, but when I was researching different cups the Pura Kiki brand and True North brand both caught my eye. I haven't used either so I can't speak to them in practice, though.

We do use a stainless steel Camelbak water bottle now (with plastic lid) and I can caution you about the heaviness of these cups when they land on a foot though. And my son has surprisingly great aim. Ask me how I know.

We use the Munchkin straw cup a lot but it leaks quite a bit. We also use these Munchkin ones and they barely leak and can really take a hard impact when my kid chucks them across the room. They’re super easy to clean too. I wish I could get him to use them all the time but sometimes he just wants a straw.

My babe LOVES purees and yogurt out of a pouch. He will eat more, it is faster, and cleaner.

I have these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NVXSBRD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&th=1

We also use these so bub can hold it easier, and without squeezing it everywhere: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HGPWS2J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1

These Re-Play cups are the best I've found. Every other brand I've tried ends up leaking and are difficult to clean.

To get my 6m to self feed, I like to put foods like cheerios, spaghetti Os, canned mixed veggies, sliced pears, etc, in a glass deviled egg dish next to him on the floor. The extra ridges helps him get a grip on the food and the weight limits how easy it is to tip over.

I also like the pouch purees over jars and instead of spoon feeding, I got these spout attachments so he can drink the pouches himself easily.

I do use spoons and forks with him here and there but the novelty gets too distracting from eating at times lol.

We used these and in a day my daughter was not using a bottle anymore. Good Luck!

These disposable table mats are good for letting them off the table and limiting the mess, haha!

Maybe I just have a forceful kid, here are the cups we have tried and how they stack up


Leak

• oxo tot straw cup
  
• munchkin 360
  
• nuby no spill
  
  Small / minimal leaks
  
• Tervis
  
  
  Don’t leak (so far...)
  
• munchkin weighted straw (this is a beginner cup though and is very slow flow)
  
• contigo (make sure it’s this design for ease of cleaning)
  
• platex stage 3 (these are the newest to the collection and used exclusively for juice, the special treat, so maybe he doesn’t want to try to spill these)

These are awesome sippy cups. Which would keep out bugs and you can sip lying down.

For inside the house we use these because they aren’t completely spill proof. When we go out we use these, spill proof unless you hold it completely upside down for awhile, then the water will come through an air hole. Both of them have silicone straws.

Edit: you can buy replacements for the straws for both of these cups if she bites through.

Otezla has some pretty serious warnings for pregnancy and breastfeeding. I would look at topical alternatives, which have a lot more history. I was using Clobetasol as needed.

Wasn't medicating for pregnancy, but definitely had a reluctant weaner. What worked for the weaning was transitioning to real plastic straws by doing that thing where you put the straw in liquid, stick your finger over it to create a pressure vaccuum with a small bit of beverage and then put it into the baby's mouth and let go until they get that milk is coming out of the straw. Then we went to the sippy cups with straws like these.

I had a baby that got teeth and caused a reactive psoriasis patch on one breast, which required an immediate stop on one side. That went about as well as you can expect and cabbage leaves are wonderfully oddly effective pain killers for engorgement.
