No my concern is that she is asking for it in the middle of the night and I’m exhausted lol I don’t mind the bottle before bed (we brush her teeth after I try to not connect it right before bedtime) and I don’t mind if she wants a bottle when she wakes up- the bottle(s!) in the night is what’s rly getting to me. And I am nervous about her teeth with the night bottles.

Dilute the milk slowly, it will work! At some point it just won't taste as good to her and she'll give it up.

I will keep on diluting it. Should I give only water in the bottle at some point?

In a way I wish she took pacifiers. Bc I wonder if it’s the sucking motion/comfort she wants. Or the milk. It’s probably the milk at this point. She loves milk.

I do, I leave a sippy cup with water in her crib. Doesn’t help. She wakes up screaming for milk

I’m not sure if it makes a diff tho, but I also did not sleep train her. She needs help falling asleep by rocking or nursing
