Stopped for my son at 3 months. I just didn't give it to him one night. Waited all night for him to wake but he didn't and has not since. He's a very big guy though and drinks loads during the day so has capacity to sleep 12 hours through. I'd just try one night and see what happens...never know until you try and you might get a pleasant surprise!

Once my LO was established on dinner, around 9-10 months I would say too. Had milk right before bed and that was it. I cut that last 10pm feed. also 12 hrs dreamy sleep...

We did it at 6/7months and didnt wean or reduce,just stopped giving it and found DD ate better during the day.Made no impact in her sleep, still done 12h but thats probably more her wee personality nothing bothers her too much.

We found DS weaned himself off it at around 10 months. One night he only wanted about 30mls, so the next night I didn't offer it. Of course he woke up and wanted it! He had a full bottle that night then the next barely anything, and from then on he never woke up again.
