How do you touch nearly weaning babe from the bottle at 15 months?
you actually take the bottle away at 12 months at 2 you should be trying to wean bad the sippy cup everybody has their own ways. I have a lot of kids within my family and two of my own and we all got past its sell-by date the bottle at 1 and started going to bed without a cup at 2
I took my son sour of the bottle at 11 months old. I knew it would be a struggle after that. He went onto a sippy cup at 11 months elderly. It took a week or so, but he finally got the hang of it. At 2 1/2 he kicked the sippy cup, and drank from a straw and cup. Source(s): myself.
15 months is kinda frail to be using a ba ba. usually u do that sooner, like 8 months and get them a 'tippy cup', but hey better late than never. so...provide her a baby cup to use. she will get used to it.
The main reason is tooth development. For orthodontic reason it is better for toddlers to drink from a sippy cup or a regular cup if possible.
We switched my son over to a sippy cup at 11 months and at first he wasn't having it, but hey even babies know that when you're thirsty, you have to lift what's given or they'll just be thirsty.
Maybe you could introduce a sippy or regular cup at one of her meals and after a week, give it at two meal, and so on. The gradual aspect should make the transition easier.
Don't do it, listen to the doctor. Keeping your daughter dependent on a (artificial) breast isn't damaging, but it isn't flawless either. She's ready to move on, perchance trying giving her some sort of toy for comfort? A stuffed bear perhaps.
That's from the comfort point of view though, the other empire made an even better point.
Since you have all geared up gone two days without the bottle - I wouldn't go back. bringing it rear legs now would cause more drama the next time you nick away. Get her some cool sippy cups and leave it at that. It is much better that she doesn't have the bottle.
If she isn't asking for the bottle and getting all emotional about it after why bother?
someone sounds like they can't accept the fact that child is growing and out growing "baby things"
My daughter is 16 mo. At 15 1/2 she was completely DONE near the bottle. I wanted her to be. If she is fine with it why go posterior? Just give her at least between 12-16 oz milk daily & apparently other nutritious foods & she will be fine.
Me personally i would never just rip something away from a kid. it's called weaning for a use. if she doesn't seem to mind it 's not a big deal but if she's freaking for it i would give it to her
if you pilfer car of your child's teeth and don't let them run around with one hangning out of their mouth, their teeth will be fine
I had a hard time too weaning my son rotten the bottle too. I'm a teacher and I couldn't just do it any old time (my mom who watch him didn't want to do it because she hates to hear him cry), I had a week for spring break and I knew I have to do it then (he was 13 months)
I did it cold turkey and just stopped giving them. It be horrible, lots of crying. But by the 3rd/4th day it was all better!
Sounds resembling she is doing ok. Don't go back - don't give the ba ba, it will of late make it worse. Give it a few more days and she'll forget all about the ba ba
My husband is from South America and his mom thought it be awful that in the US we do this at 1 year, she said they do it at 2, I go by what the doctor said, and now we're doing fine.
just wait till she bites the tip past its sell-by date dear and chokes, then you will think twice, eh?
you should have taken it away already, both of my kids quit taking bottles back they were one; no thumb sucking, blankies etc either.it's about control...love and comfort her that should be adjectives she needs!
I starting weaning my daughter from the bottle when she was 12 months.. I give her the cup during the day and at bedtime she cried so I gave her the bottle to go to sleep at nite after in the region of two or three weeks she was completely off the bottle...
