I know you're mean to drop the bottles at 12 months, but we haven't. Tried a cup a couple of times which she has fine for water but not milk, I probably should be more persistent I suppose, but in all honesty couldn't get that worked up about it. I do wonder if it is time to make more of an effort now though.
DD is 15months and eats loads (but will refuse things, inc milk if she's not hungry) and has, roughly, two bottles a day - one before her lunch time nap and one at bedtime. The amount at lunch varies a lot, I would say from about half a bottle to three quarters (not sure how much that is without double checking the bottle). Is that too much? It sounds quite a lot, but I know she has always dropped her milk intake/upped her food herself and I do prefer to follow her lead.
If it's relevant, she has semi-skimmed in cooking because she drinks a fair bit of whole.

When did you stop the bottles? And how much milk for a 15month old?
