My kids never liked bottles much but my baby right now due to the virus hasn't had a bottle since March. I want to get her a first cup but not sure what type to get. Don't want one bad for teeth or that gets too moldy, or hard to clean. What do you suggest?

My kids never took bottles. I started them right away on straw sippy cups. I found them to be the easiest for the child because they don't have to pick it up. Just practice with a regular straw first to make sure they can use it. They make thin brushes that are meant to clean the straws.

Presumably milk in the morning and juice/water in the afternoon... Haven't actually given any fluids yet.

Love the Munchkin Miracle 360 cup. Spill-proof and easy to clean.

I also like the 360 type cups but I discovered they're not spill-proof if your child is a thrower. For that child we switched to the weighted straw cups.
Also, please don't give your baby juice at such a young age. It's completely unnecessary and terrible for her teeth. It's much better to get her in the habit of drinking milk and/or water when she's thirsty.

How old is your baby?
If she doesn’t take bottles, babies can learn to sip from a straw cup from the age of 6 months. The munchkin weighted straw cups are great.
Why in the world are you giving your baby juice? My baby is 11 months and has been drinking from water from a straw cup at meals for a while now and starting to switch his milk to cups now as well.

Any tips on getting the baby to drink cows milk? Mine likes water but pushes away milk.

Idk I just gave him milk and he drank it
I did put a bit of hot water in just so it’s not freezing from the fridge.
Regardless, don’t stress about milk. If she’s drinking water then just get dairy in with yogurt and cheese.

Another vote for munchkin 360 miracle cup. But definitely clean under the top piece. My kids loved those cups- some have handles for when they are little. They barely leak and no annoying straw to clean!
