OK, some time ago I asked for any tips on how to get dd to drink more milk during the day. Well, the situation has not improved and she is now nearly 9 months old and drinking 70% of her milk between the hours of 10pm and 5am. I am getting really unimpressed by this. She had her 8 month check and other than confirming that she is quite diddy (under 25th percentile) the HV had absolutely nothing to say about her low milk intake. In fact she said to me that the idea of weaning was to get babies off milk on to solid food (dur, silly me!).
Anyhow, I'm getting pretty desperate as two feeds in the middle of the night are not my idea of fun at this stage (particularly as I am back at work and have a bionic toddler, so no opportunity for any catch up sleeps).
I don't feel happy with doing cc as I know that she is hungry and needs the milk but somehow I need to try and get her to drink it during the day.
Has Gina Ford got a website? I'm almost at the stage where I would pay for someone to try and help me sort this problem out as I don't know what to do! HELP, HELP, HELP.
