bottles before bed

My son is nearly 2 and still has a bottle before his afternoon sleep and bedtime.
We have tried stopping it but that completely failed (we tried for 10 days). We have tried changing to a cup, changing to water etc but he still wont give up the bottle.

Is he not ready to give it up yet?
What can i do to stop his bottles?

Im concerned about his teeth and dont want him to form bad habbits from this

Some of the milk bottles you can get can be retrofitted with a sippy cup attachment (eg the avent bottles you can get a sportster sipper). Have you tried this? That way he still has his original bottles.

Online you can google avent sportster, I think toys r us had them in the baby section too.
Last time I purchased (approx a year or so ago) I found a couple of online chemists.

Yep, just checked - google "avent sportster spouts".
Interchangeable with all avent baby bottles.

I spent a week before easter tell my kids that the bunny was going to take them away. I got them all out and asked them to place them somewhere for the bunny..
The bunny gave each of them a card and a present for the bottles..
The first week was hard but i jjust kept telling them that the bunny took them..
Good luck..
