How did u guys get your baby off the bottle? My son needs a bottle at night to fall asleep and one more during the night. Any tips on how I could start ending the habit? He’s almost 11 months old but definitely want to start trying before it gets too bad to where he won’t break it. He does have a sippy cup but I’ve only ever put watered down Gerber juice in it. Could I just put milk in it and get rid of his bottle completely???

We just switched all his bottles to cups. It took two months but he was off a bottle at 13m. Maybe try switching the formula to water at night? He may stop on his own after a few days, or he may keep with water at night. We keep a cup of water in his crib at night if he wakes up thirsty.
That's how we did it. I was super late with that transition though, my daughter was 2 when we stopped the bottle. I do believe they're supposed to stay on breast milk or formula till 12mo at least though. But giving him a sippy with bm/formula is fine just as long as he's still getting his nutrients.
Are you brushing his teeth before he sleeps? A bottle of juice or milk in bed will rot his teeth.
When I night weaned I would rock them with the bottle, then clean their mouths while sitting, then rock them to sleep.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
