Re: When did u stop the bottle
I am no help b/c AJ is 17 months and still gets his nap & bedtime bottle too. He also uses sippies & straws thru out the day.
My pedi said dont rush it, especially since having Gianna. But I hope to stop it within the next month or so.

Amelia uses it for the same reasons. I'm not ready to take it away. She is 13 months, maybe this summer.
Dd #1 and DD # 2 the bottle was taken away by 12 months.

Anthony just turned 7 mos and 85% of the time he refuses to take anything other than the sippy. IDK why.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
Lily decided when she was done. At around 16 months she was down to one bottle before bed. She refused it a few nights in a fow, so we stopped offering it.
She might be the easiest baby in the world though.

Kaitee was off the bottle at 12 months and Brooke was off it by 11 months. We got rid of them before they got attached.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
I think Jack was fully off by 17 months. Once I started cutting them out it was really easy.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
At 21 months she was getting one at night. The pediatrician said it can affect her speech (or lack thereof) so that night I told her she was a big girl and the bottle had to go in the garbage. She took it from me, walked to the garbage pail, and threw it out. She then waved and said "bye bye". That was it, she never asked for it.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
We stopped them a few weeks ago!!! 
We didn't care that he was 19 months and still drinking milk from a bottle. (He drank water and juice from straw cups, always refused a sippy cup.) It was the fact that he CONSTANTLY let the milk drop out of the nipple because he thought it was so funny to watch. He had milk puddles everywhere.
Finally I decided to do it a few weeks ago when neither DH or I were on overnights and could handle having a screaming toddler during the day. It actually went a heck of a lot easier than I thought it would.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
at 14 months she was down to the bedtime one only. She quit that one at 18 months. The transition went easily thank goodness!

Re: When did u stop the bottle
I was not in such a rush to get rid of the bottle at 1 like they suggest, because I feel like they're still babies and need that security. DS LOVED his bottles, but at 15 months he started biting the nipples right off the top. So the bottles were gine. I didn't want to take a chance of him choking on it.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
11 months, cold turkey, no issues both kids. I believe it is easiest if you do it around a year.

Re: When did u stop the bottle
DS uses a sippy all day, but still gets a bottle in the AM and PM - and he is 17 months. My goal is for him to be off by 2 years old. Honestly, I am not in any real rush.

We did the same, no trouble. We'll be doing the same thing this time around.
