Bottles

My DD is 15months and still has a bottle twice a day. I'd like to ditch the bottles because they need replacing anyway and I think she's old enough to have milk in a different cup.

Can anyone recommend a good cup for morn and bedtime milk please? I have a lot of different cups but don't find any of them suitable. She likes the bottle teat, she finds it comforting I think but she would still drink milk from something else.
Thanks

My son turns 1 year next week and I know we are going to have to ditch the bottles very soon. This makes me feel so sad. I love the night time bottle the most. We have been using the tommee tippee free flow cups for water throughout the day for water etc. I picked up a cheap one from asda. They have to chew it to get milk out it's a weird one but really good. I'll perhaps try milk in there first and see how we get on. Sorry I've not exactly answered your question have I. I'm in no rush to switch baby from bottle to cup yet. I'll do it when I feel like he is ready. The health visitor so we MUST move him the day he turns 1 Hmm

It's so difficult to know what's best. She still uses a dummy too for sleep but I know HV would be telling me off

I took dummy off my baby when he was 4 months. I was sick of waking up about 20 times a night to put it back in my mouth. I said as a joke I was going to put his dummy on a strap and tie round his head. HV didn't even laugh. Like I bloody would.
