Introducing cups around 6 months can help babies practice need feeding skills while continuing to breastfeed. Small amounts of water can be offered in an open cup or straw cup with meals. Breast milk should still be the main source of nutrition during the first year of life. Remember, learning to use a cup takes time and practice! Reach out to your WIC nutritionist if you have questions. https://ow.ly/gYpc50YYnCM
