Hi Yvette

I think your present routine is lovely and would see no reason that you would need to change it suddenly. Your daughter may decide she wants to give up the bottles on her own accord or at some stage you may need to decide this for her.

May I make a suggestion? Because you are pregnant, you may want to get rid of her bottles well in advance of the new baby arriving. The reason I suggest this is because it's very common for children to regress and want to behave like an infant themselves when a new baby comes into the family. They will often want (and even demand) to have a bottle more regularly during the day particularly when the baby has a bottle or is being breast fed. It can be difficult to handle when you have a lot on your plate.

I wish you all the very best with the birth of your new baby.

Rowena
