My DD turned one year old yesterday. ()
I am currently working towards stopping BF.
She now eats a lot and I have started to offer her food during the day instead of BF when she asks for it.
She's down to about 2 or maybe 3 feeds a day.
I also introduced cows' milk last week and she has been drinking that quite happily.
For the last few months I have avoided BF during the night and have only changed nappies and cuddled her back to sleep.
However, if she wakes at between 4.00 and 6.00am I figure that she must be hungry after not eating anything for about 10 hours and I often give her a feed to put her back to sleep for a couple more hours.
Once I stopp BF completely, I'm wondering what to do when she wakes at that time in the morning. It seems a little unfair to leave her crying and hungry just because it's a couple of hours too early for breakfast.
What do you all do for your weaned toddlers when they wake early and hungry?
