Just wondering if anyones else has a child still having a bottle? My daughter only has one for nap and nightime. We only give her maybe 2 ozs and i know that it is just a comfort issue now? Any tips on the best way to ween her off of it? Im 7 months pregnant and just lost my job so i know she is going through a change in her routine and am worried that taking her "bubbie" away might not be the best idea right now.

i had to just start giving my son water at bed and nap times. for the first couple days he cried for awhile. but after that he has a sippy/bottle in between cup in bed with and only drinks from it when he wants not to fall asleep. it sucks but it works. you might also want to try getting a Nuk in between bottle/sippy cups. it seems to help cause its not a bottle but it has a rubber nipple shaped like a sippy top. hope that helps
