Toddler Uses Bottle for Comfort & Won't Give It Up

My 22 month old DD is addicted to her bottle. Whenever she is nervous or upset, she demands it even if she had one 2 mins before and we know she is not hungry or thirsty. If we don't give it to her- she throws a fit of screaming that is literally out of control. My pedia saw it first hand today and even was a bit shocked at the level and length of her fits. Doc even said she doesn't recommend going cold turkey b/c she thinks it would be too traumatic for her. She is a very sensitive child. I am at my wits end....I don't think there is...

Has Anyone Ever Heard of Putting Baby Food Besides Cereal in the Baby's Bottle?

I was watching a show last night about single parents and their struggles and was in shock when one mother poured a jar of baby sweet potatoes in her baby's bottle. I've never seen or heard of such a thing. To me it seems like it would just add on to extra calories and tooth decay. But then again on the other hand I realized that it's still the same diet that most people go by for their baby, just more convenient. Has anyone else ever tried it before? Please keep in mind that I DON'T plan on doing this.

My Son Won't sleep....I'm Sooooo Burned Out!!

My son is 6 months now and still won't sleep through the night! He goes to bed at about 9:30pm and is up aleast 2-3 times each night, and he WILL NOT take naps durning the day! Everyone says sleep when he sleeps, but the only time I have to get anything done is at night so I'm up until atleast 12 or 1am. Of course, as soon as I lay down, he wakes up. He does share a room with us (1 bedroom apt) so when he starts making any noise I have to get him right away because I don't want him to wake Daddy who has to get up at 5am. I try to rock him...

Need Ideas on Getting Toddler to Take Regular Sippy Cup

My son had a very hard time transferring from the bottle to a Nuby cup. We had to go cold turkey and suffer through it. Now, a year later, the Nuby cups are driving me crazy. He chews on the silicone spouts, and they break. I've been buying tons of them, and it's ridiculous to continue at this point. He won't drink out of any of the sippy cups I've bought, even the starter ones with softer spouts. ANY IDEAS? I'm thinking going cold turkey again may be my only option, but I don't know if I can stand his whining and complaining (he makes me...
