hi ya

I just dropped the boys to two last week - they didnt bat an eyelid!!!!

They have 7oz/210ml first thing and 7oz/210ml last thing plus the three solid meals x

oooh ok, Sometimes she doesnt finish her bottles, but shes having 3 meals so, might just up it to 7oz instead of 6 and drop the afternoon one?

Yes - try upping her bedtime bottle first as she will have dropped the tea time one. I kept making their tea time bottles for two weeks just in case they woke in the night hungry - but they havent so far. xxx

ooh okie dok, ill try that tomorrow and just offer her more juice, i worry about dehydration though because she hates all the sippy cups weve tried, not found one that works yet! so she just doesnt drink as much of it when its in a cup! :s

Tom's still having 3 bottles - 6oz on waking, 8oz at bedtime an another 6oz either morning or afternoon depending. He doesn't always finish the daytime one though.

I'm not planning to drop the middle bottle until he is 1 at Christmas as he really varies in how much he eats each day.

we had a hard time to find a sippy cup that work but the one with the straw does the trick for him

he love this one...https://www.babyearth.com/nuby-no-spill-flip-n-sip-w-flip-it-straw.html

ohh meil thanks i think ill try one like that! ill look for a uk seller. She just wont drink out the tommetippee cups that have spout bits, and the nuby ones with rubber teats she cant get the hang of, its a bit annoying! im going to try a doidy cup aswell.

Anna is still on 4 bottles - she can only take 4 oz max at a time so dont know how I am going to get down to just 2 bottles!!

Omar is still taking 3 bottles. 6 oz after breakfast, 4 oz in the afternoon (usually cow milk) & 7 oz before bedtime. I dont think he's ready to drop his afternoon bottle yet.

yep we had to show him couples time how to Sip with the straw...i kind of sip it until the liquid was almost up and then he put it in his mouth and he got it after 3 times

Good luck !
