Ugh, So Ally is 11 1/2 months, and magically at 12 months she is supposed to be off the bottle. Sounds like an alcoholic or something so serious. I know this will be difficult for me because both my other two were on the bottle way past 1. I think Evie was almost 3 and Topher was over 2.
I am hoping to do this right this time, but not so confident! I have started to give Ally milk occasionally. She loves chocolate milk! That isn't the problem. The real problem is that she associates a bottle with bed time. She always asks for milk when she is tired.
The biggest issue is a problem I have created. I started giving her bottles in bed! I know big big mistake. It has only been a month or two, but it seems to be long enough to have created a habit! It started when the other kids were fighting and I couldn't sit and feed Ally I had to run in and stop them. So Ally was put in her crib with her bottle. She was asleep when I came back. Now look what I've done!
