Hi all. DD is 5 and a half months old. I'd like to start the process of quitting breastfeeding for various reasons and moving her onto formula. After a bit of experimentation she seems much more receptive to having milk from a beaker than a bottle, which is fine (so for example yesterday she had a whole formula feed from her cup). However she's still pretty fussy and if she's tired, grumpy or just not in the mood nothing but the boob will do for her (not helped by her tending to breast-feed herself to sleep). There's no immediate rush (and I've only just started) so I can do this over a few weeks, and I'm hoping as she starts solids she'll gradually get less milk-focused, but I'm wondering if anyone had any tips for me?
