My kiddo still drinks a bottle before nap and one before bedtime. I didn’t mind it enough to stop when he turned 1 but now that my youngest is getting closer to 1 I’m thinking about stopping them both at the same time. What are your personal opinions please? How was stopping with bottles if you already went through that? And if you haven’t, when are you gonna stop giving them?
I appreciate all opinions. Thanks

My son is that age and he still drinks out of a soft tip only at night I just only let him use it for milk at night we have a specific cup with soft tip something similar to the above image designated only for that purpose...I dnt mind its literally no big deal I think the nipples they recommend to stop using at a certain age because of teeth issues

I’ve let all 3 of my kids have a nighttime bottle until 3. None have problems with their teeth. Then at 3 we pack the bottles away and send them to the “babies” who need them. It’s usually a week or so of some tears and asking for a bottle but then it’s fine. And I never do the sippy cups. That’s just what worked for my family but I thinks there’s many ways to do it.

My 2&hlf year old drinks out of the sippy nipple for his bottles , but does anyone have any advice on how to cut those during the night ? 🫠 he wakes and wants more milk. The first bottle will be only 10oz to go to sleep but every bottle after that will only have about 5oz . But it’s tiring getting up every time he wants more 🥴

we started by putting a sippy with water next to her bed so she could get it when she needed a drink herself.

My son is almost three and throws a tantrum, if he does not get a bottle. We've tried weening him off of it, but he insist on the tantrum to get the bottle instead. It's hard to concert a child to a drinking cup of sippy cup. May God be our strength. This is truly difficult.

ok I’ll try that Thankyou 🫶
