It looks like Wean is coming

The twins will soon need to be weaned from their bottles. Weaning is important because children being bottle fed are more likely to suffer from tooth decay. As their teeth are rapidly appearing now, it seems only appropriate to begin the gradual process. Already, we are supplementing their bottles with baby foods three times a day. Additionally, for one feeding a day we are supplying their milk in ‘sippy’ cups rather than bottles. Benji has embraced the change very well, but Trey still prefers his bottle. At the point where both boys are comfortable with the ‘sippy’ cup once a day, we’ll gradually increase its use until the bottle is phased out. Most children kick the bottle between the ages of 12 to 18 months.
