We had a similar problem with M, but with him it was the amount he was drinking at bedtime.
We had to switch to a cup when we went on hols (forgot the bottle) and remarkably he went down to one smallish cup rather than 2 or 3 full bottles without much fuss.

He still hanging onto those nighttime nappies though for dear life, even though he is just about dry. Definitely a psychological thing for him.

We#’re trying to do the same with Josie. Rice milk just doesn’t fill her tummy but she has turned into a very picky eater and so far as we are concerned, that means the milk goes first!

Oddly though, she is often nearly dry at night. Today there is only probably 1 tiny wee in the pull ups and she has gone through nappiless in the recent past.

Only having one in nappies at all now is nice though.

In the end it was ok. She did come through (I’ve no idea when), but didn’t make a great fuss. But it did mean from 6 am she wanted to get up because she didn’t have anything else to do.

So far so good.

Good luck! We had that situation with P, if I remember rightly. She used to down at least eight ounces during the night and produce soaked nappies. I think we switched to water when she was three. From then on she drank far less, enabling us to drop night-time nappies. Gosh, its amazing what you can remember… We still make sure both kids have water beside their beds. I can’t sleep unless I have water beside me.
