When to move from bedtime bottle to bedtime beaker?

[springerspaniel]

LO is 13 months, drinks water from a beaker with a spout. Has two bottles at 7am and 7pm - about 10 oz in each (8oz full to brim.) Is there an age where I really should move to a beaker? I know I can do what I want but I wondered what the 'norm' is. Also when do most people move on to cups? (I know you can start v early.) His beaker will only hold about 6oz milk. The big ones tend to be those anyway up cups where you have to either suck hard or bite the teat. Don't really want one of those.

I moved DS to a beaker for milk when he was about a year, just because he drank watrer froma beaker and didn't seem particuarly attatched to his bottle, just wanted the milk! Am guessing hes on cows milk so would be easy enough to refill if ness if beaker not big enough??? Found about this age DS started to drink less and less milk at bedtime - now at 18 months often only has a few mouthfuls, but shouts for it as soon as he wakes up in the morning and will often drink two beakers full then.

The Avent products are all interlinkeable IYKWIM so you could put the beaker top on a 9 oz bottle.

Aha - cool. Will buy one. We use the Nuk cups but happy to buy an Avent top. Also thinks he has to suck too hard to get it from the bottle fast enough. Will take a trip to Boots.

I put off moving DD1 from her bedtime bottle until she was about 18 months as I thought that she wouldn't get enough. Then one night I gave her a Bob the Builder mug full of warm milk and she downed it in one and asked for another!!!
Tell you what though now she is 2.6 I dread to think of what will happen if Bob ever gets smashed on the tiles!!!!! It'd be a tantrum from hell.
