sippy cup questions

One LO has been consistently using his sippy for milk, juice and water. he uses it first thing for their am milk and of course, throughout the day. i still do however, use a bottle at bedtime.
my OTHER LO *just* started using his sippy for his morning milk. he generally threw it across the room, cried and carried on until he got his bottle. LOL. i figured i'd give him a week or so until his PM bottle turned into a sippy.

should i be just using sippies at nighttime or do i use the bottle. i am not sure if it matters.

 

The night time bottle was the last to go for us. I was still nursing one boy after 12 months, so I would nurse him while DH would give the other a bottle. At about 13 months we gave up the bottle and went to bedtime sippies. My ped was pretty emphatic about getting off of bottles ASAP; I didn't feel like my guys were terribly attached to the bottles (they were using sippies just fine) so I ditched the bottles just to shut him up.

I think you're on the right track with letting your one LO become a little more familiar with the sippy before getting rid of the bottle entirely. :good:

 

our pedi wanted to make sure bottles were gone by the 15 month well-visit... sounds like you're doing great.

 

Our nighttime bottle was the last too, we started the bottle/sippy transition at 12 months and went off the nighttime bottle at about 13.5 -14 months or so.

 

You guys are lucky, my ped wanted bottles gone by 12months. We happily let them go at 9 1/2 months. I can tell you I don't miss the bottles and liners...
