It's hard to figure out which bottle with handles or sippy cup you should be giving your baby and when. The market is jam packed with products and endless advice about which one is best and which one you should use . When it came to my babies, I always turned to a trusted brand for advice - one that was built in understanding a baby's needs, and not just about making a quick buck. We sat down with the experts at MAM to understand which one suits each stage and why. Here goes!
