Bottle transition

I’m still giving bottles and don’t plan to stop for a while. We still feed him to sleep and he relies on it quite heavily for comfort. He is also going through a stage of waking anytime between 4-6 in the morning and he’s still knackered but hungry so I give him his morning milk and he goes back off to sleep again, I can’t imagine he’d go back to sleep if I gave him milk in an open cup and in no way am I waking up at 4am 😭😂 I will probably lean away from bottles when he starts sleeping a little better!

We are still doing bottles as well. We are in 2 milk feeds still (morning and bedtime) so find bottles just work best for that still. I think once he drops to one milk feed then will look at other options but for now it’s working for us x

With my first we didn’t phase out the bottle will he was around 2years old and I don’t plan to do anything for while with my youngest either as he’s still waking in the night and dependent on his bottle during the day for settling down for sleep.

Also still using a bottle. Used this until after 2 with my first so i plan on doing the same this time x

They say open cup is best but I continued to give my eldest a bottle for as long as he wanted it before bed. It brought him so much comfort so I didn’t want to take that off him. He naturally just weaned himself onto a sippy cup.
As long as baby is having practice with using an open sippy cup during the day, then I think keeping the bottle for comfort before bed is perfectly fine. The only reason they say not give it directly before bed is so you can brush teeth after the milk so the sugars don’t sit on the teeth over night x

we are still doing bottles too, HV said not to switch it it would affect his comfort especially at nighttime x
