hi there, my DD (3 in september) wakes up at night and can't get back to sleep unless we give her a beaker of milk. She screams blue murder, and we're so tired - and she shares a room with our 6YO DS, that we give in, she drinks it on our lap, then we cuddle her and put her back to bed (awake actually, but soon drifts off..). It all started when she was having night terrors and we would give her milk to calm her down. It's now a well-ingrained habit and I wondered if anyone had any advice…we've tried cold turkey and she literally screams and screams - for as long as an hour (with us in the room trying to give her water which she just refuses), and inevitably wakes up DS too...
Thanks!
