Am I the only one who give a bottle right after meals ?

[TraciG]

I read about mother's that give the bottle a half hour to an hour later, Iv'e always given it right after the food sometimes I give the bottle first then the food if she's tired & cranky , works out better .

Just curious

We usually give DS half his bedtime bottle about 1/2 hour before his meal. I only offer water in a sippy cup during and right after he eats and the rest of his bottle after he has had his bath and is ready for bed.

It depends. My DS loves his bottles. I usually give him a bottle when he wakes up in the morning, wakes up from naps + before bed though he sometimes opts to skip that time. There's probably no right way to do this. If he's especially cranky he usually wants a bottle. I don't typically give him a bottle after meals but that's usually due to the fact that he has had a bottle within an hour or so before a meal.
