I'll try not go on too much
DD was breastfed til 15 months, with occasional follow on top ups from 11 mths, she has low weight gain due to genetic condition, this is aided by keeping her on follow on for the foreseeable future- no probs
Thing is she doesn't drink as much from a cup as a bottle, I am wanting to take her off the bottle for her teeth etc, she isn't a sucky baby, was not a comfort sucker on the breast, always ate and then ditched the boob, she is the same with a bottle. She has no association with bottles and bedtime so no issue there.
Do I just chuck the bottles out? And she'll learn if she needs it? Cut down one at a time?
My first never had a bottle so not dealt with this before?
Any tips or similar experiences?
