What brand of cup did you buy? The anti leakage one may be hard for some babies to suck. But it is normal that babies rather chew on the straw than suck it sometimes. I use the brand BBox and my gal can suck the water since 5.5mo. I try to drink with a straw in front of her too so that she will imitate me. Have to keep trying.

My gal could suck alms or immediately but there are times when she try to chew instead of sucking. She has always been a "sucker" lol.. Drink milk from bottle also suck very fast

Btw, sippy cup is not the same as straw cup. Straw cup I find it very difficult to suck even for adult. Usually I offer my LO the adult's straw which seems to be easier for him
