John did pretty early, around 4-6 months if I remember correctly.  But Zoe never really did...maybe a couple of times before we took away the last bottle at 1 year.  She just never had any interest..??   :)

hi logan's mom,

my lo is mostly breastfed, but we give him bottles when we are out and recently started giving him one every evening. he's so grabby for everything that I let him try on his own just a few days ago and he did great. I put him in his infant tub so that he'd be at a good angle and had him in the kitchen and I was actually free to make dinner and he was totally entertained with feeding himself.
