When they're older they give it up easier. With my 1st DD she was weaned at 18 months and we didn't replace the boob with anything. Since we weaned 2nd DD at 1 we replaced it with a sippy cup.

I wouldn't worry too much about it now. By then they will form all kinds of attachments you can distract with, right now the closeness and sucking is what they get the most comfort from.

I started to offer the bottle, once a day, then worked my way up from there. it also helped that DH couldn't BF him and would also do it- he was more comfortable and soothed when DH fed him, since he couldn't try to BF. Chat Icon

DD sort of weaned herself at six months to the bottle. Now that is the soother. But when she goes to sleep she still likes to rock in the cradle/bf position. She will go down for my DH but prefers me in that position.
