Ds was breastfed till 13m and I stupidly introduced a bottle of cm before bed- he has now grown dependant on this and is taking so much he is being sick. Tonight I have decided to go cold turkey which I know is going to be a nightmare and I wonder if anyone can give me some suggestions of a better way of doing it?
Normally we would sit in his room and he'd drink a full bottle then go down, drowsy, but he has become more difficult to settle recently. With all the palava of Christmas etc and a terrible cold and cutting 4 teeth he has also become clingy and it's not getting any better. Should I read him a story in the sitting room with a cup of milk? Or do that in the bedroom? I don't know if I'm better to change the routine completely for a distraction or just alter it slightly.
He is 17m and dh is away so it's down to me. Please help! Sorry this is long.
