Good plan. Keeping it in my back pocket. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dropping-feeds#post-2647046 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 07:13:39 +0000 ShootingStar 2647046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DS I started dropping bottles from the end of the day and worked up to the am bottle. That one was hardest for me because I had to actually take the time to feed him breakfast instead of letting him feed himself a bottle while I got ready. </p> <p>With the first bottle to go we moved it from feeding to sleep to feeding before bath. Then we started doing solids for dinner consistently and dropped the bottle. </p> <p>Then I tackled his daycare bottles by replacing them with snacks (we were already doing solids for lunch). I did one at a time about a week apart. </p> <p>Then when I was finally ready I stopped giving him a morning bottle and we did a banana instead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dropping-feeds#post-2647029 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 06:13:04 +0000 travellingbee 2647029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 10 months tomorrow. He is still having 5 6oz bottles a day plus 3 solid meals. He eats a lot, but still wants those bottles too. When do I start dropping feeds and how? I feel like with my first he naturally just stopped needing them as he ate more but this one seems to want both... </p>
