3 year old - bottle of milk in bed - what to do?

[DeeInMalaysia]

Hi,
I have 2 sons aged 3,3 and 1,3. They both take a bottle of milk to bed with them as it's the only way I can get them to go to sleep. I'm a bit worried because I think maybe ds1 is too old for that now and how will I ever stop this habit? Also I'm very worried about their teeth.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks

Have you tried them with a beaker? I know it's not an easy transition, but try the sell of big boys have beakers and I'm sure even your ds2 could manage a beaker (sippy cup). Playtex do some awesome ones over here in the US.

Hi,
They drink from beakers during the day no problem. It's just that they associate a bottle with going to sleep and actually fall asleep whilst drinking their bottle. I know it's my own fault for letting them start this in the first place (easy solution at the time) but I don't know how to teach them how to fall asleep by themselves without the comfort of their bottle. (they don't use dummies either)

my dd takes a beaker of milk to bed. she's 4. she doesn't fall asleep on it, and has brushed teeth before. is this going to be a problem? she loves it and no way can i get her off it, nor want to.

is it just the fact that it's a bottle?

Thanks for the advice!
My friend just had a baby and I'm now trying to talk the oldest one round to give his bottle to the baby because he's a big boy now. Hope this will work.
(for the youngest I might try to switch it to water)
