Moving away from bottles (esp for bedtime milk)
Show your support
@Susan these are some cheapie ones I got off Amazon. They come with a lid and straw but we’re using just as an open cup. He also likes using some egg cup thing 😂 Just finding the link for the cups https://amzn.eu/d/bdu9Dj1
Same here , he cant sleep at night without his bottle, during the day its not a problem.been planning to stop the bottle at 18 months , not sure if its a good idea?
@Helen thank you. 😊
Are you warming the milk? I stopped out of laziness and that meant my LO started to drop bottles because it wasn't as comforting lol also for night time try dropping the amount gradually!
@Elize yep we’re the same. We went from full nursing and occasional bottle only a month ago too so I feel bad going away from bottles so soon but I know that ideally you need to say bye to the bottles from 18m!
@Stace yeah we are! I’m a bit worried to offer it cold especially for bed and in the night as sleep is so difficult it’s a bit scary to rock the boat. I do want to drop the night bottle(s) though so maybe that’s a good way to go. I was going to go down in oz gradually but I think offering it cold will also put him off
@Susan you’re welcome! We don’t use them as they’re intended because he’s always just taken the straw out 😂 but they seem to work well like this. The same Amazon shop also does some open cup ones without handles but they’re quite slim making it difficult for him to see what he’s doing properly. And even get his little face in there!
Following as want the same. What cup is your little one using in the photo please? Mine struggles holding his open cup.
