HELP - 16 month old waking 3 times a night!
Not only does my 16 month old climb into my bed in the middle of the night, he also needs a bottle at least twice a night. Any advice how to break this?

How does he climb into your bed? He isn't in a crib?
What does his food schedule look like during the day? He probably doesn't need the food at that age and is probably doing it for your attention.

Yes, he climbs into my bed; he is in a toddler bed because the crib was useless and he was climbing out of it.
I feed him breakfast between 8 - 9, lunch anywhere between 12 - 3, and dinner at 6:30....then bath, teeth, book, and in bed between 7:30 - 8pm (with a bottle).

Maybe start by switching one of the night bottles to water & slowly weaning the bottles all together. I agree; its mainly for attention.
My 15 month old has recently started to wake in the middle of the night & he'll stop the minute I pick him up. I rocked him a few nights & then slowly stopped (rocking to holding only to touching him in the crib). Now I let him cry it out. Your situation is a bit different b/c he's in the toddler bed. I'd say sort of do the same thing & put him right back into the toddler bed.
