My 13 month old takes an hour to drink from a NUBY cup (gets only 2-3 oz milk). Tried making holes with needle but that does not work either. How to use nuby to actually make it work?

I have tried 2 different kinds of cups already. She does not like them. She likes milk and wants to drink from nuby only.

not sure how they are make to work but have you tried a different cup? she might be bitting down on it (if its a soft top) so she can't get much out.

There isn't a trick to it. Evidently, she doesn't like drinking from the sippy cup. Try a different sippy cup (or a training cup or just a regular little plastic cup). She also might not want to drink the milk but would prefer water or juice. Thus, not drinking much from the cup.
Good luck!

Let the baby take her time what's the rush? I guess after she drinks the milk that is probably warm by now she wants a nice long nap. You don't want her to choke herself if the milk or beverage comes out too fast (patience is a virtue)
Good Luck
( no need to rock a bye baby).

If you are needing to make bigger holes get an upholstry needle and heat it up to poke the holes it will make a bigger hole. Just a needle is probably not making much of as hole.

just let her keep trying if she really likes it she Will learn how to make it work. had the same thing with my son he's 14 months now he drinks from anything. its just a learning process she'll get it soon enough.

put a slim straw through the air hole on the top. it's almost spill proof.
