I've been trying (and failing) to night wean DD. Shes waking several times a night and having milk 2-3 times. She had been sleeping through but she woke one night and I gave in to the bottle after a few hours. Really wishing I hadn't!
I've been reducing the amount in her bottles so I give her 3oz and put her in bed and she falls asleep. The problem is she then wakes after 15mins and won't sleep without more milk so I end up giving her it and she drinks just 1 or 2 oz. what am I meant to be doing?? Should I give her 3oz and then try other things to get her to sleep but give no extra milk? She can go for hours sleeping for 15mins in between crying for milk or just not sleeping at all.
Would it be quicker just to give her no milk at all? I don't think I can cope with no sleep for days and days while I reduce the milk if she keeps reacting like this!
