Weaning
Off the bottle
user1465146157 · 20/11/2022 22:30
My DC refuses to give up the bottle at night. they're over 1 so I worry it's bad for teeth but sleep seems impossible without it. Total rejection of any other vessel containing milk - it has to be the baby bottle.
How do we stop the night feeds and more importantly get them off bottles?
Thanks

Sorry that you haven't had any answers yet @user1465146157.
Do you mean the lady bottle before bed or are you after some tips on gentle night weaning?

My little one has just turned 1. She’s my youngest and what I usually do is give them a few months leeway and let them tell me when they don’t need the night bottle anymore. So when they start to drink less.
Otherwise I feel bad as feel like maybe they are hungry- it’s such a long time between dinner and breakfast for their little tummies 🙈
