Do you still give your baby a bottle of milk before you put them to bed?

I feel like mine doesn’t doze off otherwise

I don’t. My daughter dropped her own bedtime feed around 10 months.

Yes. He loves his milk

Yes. He loves his night bottles. We’ve been slowly phasing it out to an hour before bed time, but then he got really sick so I sort of reverted as he was not eating as much from being sick. But he was getting used to the phase out and I’ll be resuming that.

I started with a straw cup, and give her that with milk in it about 30-45 mins before putting her to bed. I think it soothes her and we make it apart of our “wind down” routine, but allows time for me to brush her teeth before lying her down

yes, still do warm bottle, half formula half whole milk. I won't stop until she's ready

Yes and mine normally drinks two bottles

Yes she loves her milky

My daughter still nurses to sleep.

We still nurse to sleep 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yes, she loves her milk to go to sleep with

Ya I give him a sippie cup of whole milk for now

I nurse my girl before bed

I was in that situation and I rescheduled his bottles. He gets his last one at 7:30 PM. With dinner. And in order to counter sleeping with bottle to follow, I was advised by his teacher to get bottles when he gets up from nap before the nap then he gets his bottles throughout the day starting at 7 AM.

Yes! We’ve tried like 20 (literally) different cups/straws/sippy cups and he will not drink milk from any of them. I’ve phased out all of his bottles except the bedtime bottle. I tried no bedtime bottle for a few nights and neither of us got sleep. He’s just not ready yet and that’s okay 🖤

I’d like to add I just make sure to brush his 2 little teeth really good after!

Mine was down to two bottles a day and I just swapped one for a sippy cup. She still gets the night bottle for now as I think it does help soothe her and also brush her teeth after! I hope to phase it out in a couple months but I don’t think she (or I 😅) are ready yet

I still give mine his milk at bedtime, and he even wakes some nights for milk. When he’s ready, we’ll cut it. Every child is different. I like to go with what my child wants!

Deeanna, have you tried the bottle called beaba?

I actually haven’t!

Yes I do and if I don't he will not go to sleep at the time I want him too I give him a nice big warm bottle and he instantly gets sleepy

Deanna it has handles and turns into bottle and sippy cup

He has always needed one but we are trying to get some sort of routine down so that we can brush his teeth before bed (such a pain having to worry about that now 😆) but the routine hasn’t started really yet because we are having a lot of night/bed routine changes to begin with. It’s impossible to worry about all the different changes at one time. I refuse to stress myself out about it and thankfully my husband is on the same page lol
