My DS2 is 16 months and has a bottle of cows milk before bed. This is all snuggled up with me and a lovely time for both of us.
However, I know he should be drinking his milk from a sippy cup now. He has water throughout the day in a cup so this isn't a problem. I can't remember when DS1 stopped having his bedtime milk in a bottle but he stopped drinking milk before bedtime once I put it in a sippy cup. I think he only had it because he liked sitting in my lap and sucking and snuggling.
Do I have to put it in a sippy cup now and risk him not having it anymore? Or can he keep having it in a bottle for a little longer. I am getting a bit conscious of it when we stay at friends' houses!
TIA
