S.P.
it is interesting how in the American culture we take are told to take the bottle away.....in my husbands culture children have a bottle sometimes until they are 5-7 years old. I'm following my husbands traditions.....my kids both drink their milk from sippy cups but they still get it at bedtime....they are 4 and 2. She's not ready to let go of it if it is this big of a deal. Start using only the sippy cup during the day and then put her regular milk in the sippy cup.. When she is ready she'll give it up on her own.
