What first bottle or breakfast?
Miss 1 has her bottle first when she gets up. Should she be having her breakfast first now? The bottle is 150mls. She won't drink from a sippy cup at all it just gets thrown on yhe floor but she does have a bottle with a straw that she drinks out of for water

What first bottle or breakfast
Whatever works for her is fine I believe. If you see that she does not want to eat her breakfast after having a bottle of milk, then maybe first try to make her first bottle a little lesser untill she eats her breakfast. Breakfast will keep her longer full than just a bottle, but some times when they had milk they don't want to eat. Make her first bottle lesser and lesser untill you can give the bottle after breakfast.

What first bottle or breakfast
Sorry, forgot to say that if she eats her breakfast fine after having this 150ml bottle, I don't see any problem with it.

Yes we are slowly cutting the bottle down
it was 200mls and this week its 150mls and next week it will go down to 100mls as she wasn't eating her breakfast much. She is eating it better this week so it seems to be working. Just wanted someone else's thoughts on this so thank you

breakfast first or bottle
I still give my son his bottle first and by an hour later he has his breakfast. He is not keen to have his breakfast, i think his stomach is too full. i want to offer him his breakfast first but he just wants to watch TV and he wont eat anything unless tv is on. how can i distract him away from TV?

How old is your son?
Have you tried not having the TV going? We've only managed to cut the bottle down to 150mls any less than that we got a huge tanty but she also has her breakfast about an hour later and eats it fine.

tv and eating...
I had this problem with my 9yo when he was a baby.
In the end I had to have him strapped into his highchair and face it away from telly and tie his arms down till he stopped throwing the food everywhere.. took 2 nights doing that till he was being an angel and eating everything on his plate.
He still wants tv going 24/7 so at dinnertime we usually turn the tv off.

TV eat later
my son wont eat without the tv on. I guess Iam the one to blame this habit but now i dont know what to do. I have him strapped inhis highchair but he keeps pointing to the tv and will push his plate away. I have tried giving him toys and even water to play with but nothing works. any ideas?

just whatever works
which ever one works for you is just fine, my son had his bottle first until he was two, as long as you fit it all in there it doesnt matter which order :)

drink before breakfast
Whatever works, my two girls aged one and nearly four mostly have a milk drink before breakfast. But myself and my husband also have a cup of tea before we eat and I remember my nana doing the same thing, altho sometimes she had superwine biscuits too. If you have early risers like us I find it easier to give milk before hand as you change nappies etc. And like some one else mentioned so long as they eat breakfast afterwards all good.
