Nightime feedings

[apples and bananas]

I completely agree and I told her exactly that. Not to mention the issues with oral health... baby bottle mouth... sleep deprived parents. And it does affect the daycare. He does not know how to successfully self sooth. He wakes up during nap and screams like his arms being cut off. The only reason he doesn't do it the entire time anymore is because I don't respond to it.

I told them to pick a weekend and prepare for some sleepless nights... but do it when you are not tempted to give in. He has slept through a few nights lately so it's the perfect time to settle in and get through it!

I was a parent that fed my child a bottle to bed (my first child) and she had horrible issues with her baby teeth. More work then nessasary. I learned my lesson and took a completely different approach to my son and he has perfect teeth! Not an issue at all.

IMO once they can successfully drink from a sippy cup, they no longer need a bottle.
