My one year old still on 3 bottles at night

HI my one year old is still on 3 bottles at the night. He doesn't want any milk in the day. He doesn't have a dummie. He wakes up 3 to 4 times at the night and a bottle is the only way I can settle him. Is there anything else I can do to stop him having so many bottles at the night and how can I get him to sleep through. Help Smile

Stop the bottles, offer less in each bottle, water them down or offer only water - it's up to you, but at that age they really don't need 3 bottles in the night

I agree with pixie. Just gradually stop them.

Water them down if they're full bottles though. So 5 scoops of powder in 6oz then 4 scoops. Drop one to two scoops per night. Do one feed at a time though!

I did it by dropping ounces rather than watering it down so they got used to taking a smaller amount of liquid

Sounds like he is hungry and needs to eat and drink more in the day
