[quote=Anonymous]Argh, we've also gotten the lecture on 2% and obesity and, setting aside that the medical evidence on whole v. 2% is completely mixed even on a population level, our 2 year old DD is ~90th%ile for height and ~50th%ile for weight, so I am not really that concerned that she is going to become obese anytime soon. Meanwhile, they are so busy lecturing on that topic, that they are ignoring our actual questions/concerns.

(We were down to one pre-bed bottle -- teeth brushed afterwards -- at our DD's 18 month visit and just lied b/c of the lecture on bottles we got at 15 months (when she was still having 2/day). OMG. She doesn't use a pacifier or suck her thumb, she finds the bottle comforting as part of her wind down and STTN... No, I am not going to yank all bottles at once and provoke meltdowns/screaming/no sleep... nor do I think my then-current "predicament" is a "total disaster" or "complete failure. Unsurprisingly, bottles were long gone by 2 (last one was fully kicked at 21 months) and the dentist thought her teeth looked great at her 2 year visit.)[/quote]
