Confused....bottles and beyond, please help!
Hi,
My LO is 10 months now so my HV said I should wean him off bottles. He has a Tommee Tippee sippy cup when he has water or juice but tends to spill it everywhere when I try putting milk in it. I have also been giving him water in the Amadeus 360 but my HV said that is as bad as a bottle and I thought I was doing well. I just don't know what to do, what advice can you give me of your experiences of moving away from bottles and what you did?
All so confusing!

My DD had a bottle a day until she was three (milk only) and her teeth are perfect. As long as you aren't giving juice etc in teated bottles and you are maintaining good tooth hygiene, I would wean him away from bottle at a rate and in a way that suits you and him, not your HV.

I am really starting to fret about this now.............anyone?
Try it x
We use the Tommee Tippee little sippy cups for water and my LO takes to them well as he does the Doidy but not for milk! He is 11 months now so I wondered what others do or is it really easy? I would like to get him off the bottles asap but trying to get it down him is difficult. We just give up!
Still not sure about all of this or maybe I am agonising when I shouldn't. Its just when someone says something to you it can start you questioning things!
