Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

remember you all told me to give G a bottle of milk when i was worried

about him not taking in enough ounces?  and I said i didn't want to wean him once from bf'ing, and then again from a bottle?

 

well, i stuck to my guns, skipped the bottle, and now he drinks like a champ from the sippy.  no bottle weaning for me tia!    *fist pump*

  • Glad it worked. I think it's kind of ridiculous to keep introducing things just to take them away in a few months.

     

  • hannah was the same way. i never gave it to her in a bottle, just kept offering her a sippy. After about 2 weeks,she gave in and drank milk from her sippy.

    have you tried Kefir?  I remember reading some having luck with that when their LO's were being funny about cow's milk!

     

     

  • Glad this worked for you, because I struggled with just that, it was harder to get her off the bottle than the boob and now she hardly wants the milk at all unless it's from a specific sippy cup.
  • Who "weans" from a bottle? I wouldn't even know how to do that.

     I just threw all of them in the trash one day & she chose not to starve herself and used the cup just fine.

    Congrats to you, though!
