the last bottle . . .

I always assumed bedtime would be the last bottle to go, but I realized this morning that I think her morning bottle will be the last to go.  I think I could get rid of the one at bedtime pretty easily (and am going to start this week), but as soon as she is up in the morning and I walk into her room, the first thing out of her mouth is "ba?"  "ba?"  She calls a lot of things "ba," but she's clearly asking for her bottle first thing in the morning.  And now I've taken to letting her drink it while I'm getting her diaper changed and getting her dressed for the day (because she stays still with a bottle!), so I might be making it worse . . . I'm down to half a tall jar of formula, and I don't want to buy more and I don't want to put anything but formula in bottles.

How is everyone else doing with getting rid of bottles?  Any advice?  Better to just drop the 6 oz bottle altogether, or decrease the amount first?

    We're in the same boat.  J has gone to bed a few times without the evening nursing session, but he refuses to let me out of his sight before he gets his morning boob.  I'm going to have DH get him up and ready and see how that goes.  We're still a couple weeks out though.  He'll drop the evening one next week, then we'll work on the morning session.

    We are starting the transition as soon as he is fully on WCM. My plan is to drop the 2nd bottle first, then 1st and finally the 3rd.
