bottles of milk, and such

 we're friends right?  

And friends don't judge.  

At least not to your face.

I've got a little confession for you.

I think my child is addicted to milk.

From a bottle.

So I sit here all showered and prettied-up in clean matching clothes with make-up and accessories on filling y'all in on my world today while my sweet baby girl lays her little head down on my lap for a rest...

(um, hmm)

For reals ladies, let's just tackle one issue at a time...

how did y'all make your chillins' give up the bottle?

We have successfully cut out half of her bottles going from 48 to 24 oz of milk a day.

She drinks water from a sippy cup all day long and is pretty good with assisted sips from water bottles as well.

But she seriously has panic attacks if she doesn't get her bottle.

She finishes her milk and the holds it and loves on it and sucks at it awhile longer.

It's like her bestie and I'm too chicken shit to take away.
She's 13 months.
I think 12 months was the original goal...

What do we do?

What did y'all do?

Go cold turkey?

Wean slowly?

I need some momma advice

asap

I'm giving myself a 45 day window.

I want them gone by her 15 month check up.

And because we got ourselves another baby coming and I don't want Wells thinking that sweet teeny tiny stole her bottle.
