We’re taking my 2.5 off the bottle cold turkey but since she doesn’t have anything to sooth her to sleep, she ends up just crashing (writing this after she went to sleep at 10:30).

We have a schedule
We got the red/green clock
Any tips ?

We did this by diluting with more and more water until my kid was no longer interested. That worked for us.

Do you have a bedtime routine without the bottle? Pajamas on, brush hair, read story, sing a song, etc.? I’d create something like that if you don’t and make that take its place.

For our kids it wasn’t too traumatic because we just removed the bottle from the rest of the routine. We did reduce the amount of milk in the bottle over time first.

Completely normal toddler behavior. My daughter did this last night. Went to the bathroom, laid down, and then asked to go potty again. Told her no the second time and she finally went to bed

Routine really helped my small human - and sleep stories!

And blackout blinds!!

No screens for at least 1-hour before bed

I get them ready for bed, read a chapter or two of the book we are reading, pop on a sleep story and stay while they settle and then (gradually) shortened the time I would stay with them.

Gently encourage them to close eyes, lie still, get cosy, favourite teddy etc
Sometimes rubbing their back can help

Different things may work at different times and each child is different. Good luck :)

She's going to struggle. She had something to soothe her and that was ripped away. Help her find a healthy replacement. A stuffed animal? Or when I weaned of the boob at 2yrs old, it was gradual. Then I would let my kids snuggle close to the boob but turtleneck on. I wouldn't put them to sleep but would give them 3-5min of cuddle then put them down and walk out.

I’m new on the job search and still employed. I’m looking to grow further in the logistics industry.

Should I even bother applying when there are more than 100 applications?

I’m a 9th year in a mostly litigation-based practice group at a one-tier partnership firm. My group’s billable hours have been low the last few years, so making partner will be nearly impossible, and a counsel position is not viable long-term in my group. What’s the best option here if partnership is the ultimate goal? Try to get a NEP/counsel position at another firm, which is likely difficult in my market, or offer to take a class cut by a few years?
