DS is 10.5 months and is still having 3-4 bottles a day, one after each meal and the last one just before bed.

We are still having 3 bottles of 200mls a day and have recently turned one. Will look at decreasing them soon or making the midday one at a different time as she is not eating all that much

DD1 was having a morning and night bottle at 3 and half wacko.gif

DD2 is going on 13 months and I feel like I'm heading down the same path with her. She's having 4 bottles a day still and I don't even know how to stop it.

At 12mths DS1 was on one bottle a day, dropped that at 14mths. If your looking to drop it usually goes lunch (give it in a cup) then brekkie then bed. Or something like that from what I remember being told.
By 12mths theyre usually eating a family diet, with 3 serves of calcium per day.
