Trying to wean my LO off milk bottle

Need help. My Lao currently has milk in his MAM bottle in the morning and at night. I am trying to switch bottles to cups or something similar, any recommendations? Also, I am trying to wean him off the morning milk but he gets up in the morning and the first thing he says is 'milk'. How do I cut it off?

I’m doing the same. I’ve only started with the morning bottle and it’s taken quite a few different cups to settle on one she’ll actually drink milk from - it’s a fred and flow straw cup. She isn’t drinking as much milk in the morning as she was on the bottle. I personally wouldn’t cut it off because he’ll drop it on his own. Maybe start offering it alongside breakfast? I do milk after breakfast x

Have their water cup before you get them up. You could have a little snack to like some fruit or oat bar incase they are hungry or move breakfast earlier.

We moved my daughter from Mam bottles to TumTum cups for morning + bedtime milk. She has milk when she first wakes up (well, within 15 mins), and then breakfast about an hour later.

We moved our little boy from a bottle to a munchkin beaker from Amazon, the teat is soft. He looked a bit confused the morning we gave it to him but thankfully he took to it straight away. Going to attempt weaning him off his milk when he's a bit older

Thanks all! He goes to nursery so I'm struggling to drop his morning milk completely. For those using cups or something else, do you have a link you can share?

Thanks! How are you washing the straws in the bottle? I can't seem to do it well enough
