Janie...the nightmare was only for about 4 days. I said to her that mummy is throwing away your bottles coz your a big girl now. She cried for it but I just persisted. See what we were doing was giving her milk in bed to go to sleep and I didnt want her to do it anymore, so it was actually hard to change it around. So I sat her down with a cup after bath, then we went in for a story. Its working fine now. The only thing is this week coz shes been sick, shes asked for the bottle...so definately a comfort thing. I think why it worked quickly was because I was ready to make the change!
