sippy?

DD is 10 months but has been funny with her bottles for about a month now. 2 weeks ago I tried a sippy but she clearly doesn't seem to know what to do with it. She just chews on the cup and plays with it. Over the weekend I tried going back to the bottle and she clearly doesn't want it.
I still BF 3x a day so I know she is getting milk, but she doesn't drink at all at daycare and then appears desperate to nurse when I get her home. She has been quite constipated over the past week or two and I think it's because she isn't getting enough fluids.
Should I try a different sippy cup?

Yeah, we tried like 6 different cups before we found one DD liked. Straw cups, the 360 cups, hard spout sippy cups, soft spout. The one she ended up liking is the Nuby Grip n Sip Cups.

My DD is 10 months and has some water in straw cups. She sometimes let's it dribble out of her mouth, lol, but she figured out how to suck from straw cups over the summer.

I always had success with the Nuk cups. While they're technically a sippy cup, a baby/toddler uses it similar to a bottle so there isnt as much confusion.

yes, keep trying different cups. she will find one she likes and get the hang of it. with my first, i went through the same thing and was so worried he wasn't drinking enough. but it doesn't last long - they figure it out.
