Hi mommies,my baby is 11 months old and she wants night feeding in every 2 hours. she just starts crying at night with her eyes closed and need feeding. I have to give her feeding every 2 hours. And I think it's time to stop her night feeding.I don't understand how. Should I give her flavor wala milk because she hates plain milk or should I add bornvita or something?
And how should I feed her this?please let me know.

And no bournvita not recommended at this age. You can add jaggery or make milk dishes like suji kheer, sweet daliya etc as alternate to plain milk

Hi, pls ensure the kid is full before sleeping. If the tummy is not full they wake up due to hunger. 1. Try to feed proper dinner like khichdi, daliya, mashed dal roti , dal chawal etc. 2. Keep water in a sipper and try giving that at night. 3. Your feed will stop gradually- don’t rush and try to decrease no. Of feeds at night but gradually. 4. Indulge kid in play time and physical activities in the evening as when tired , they sleep better

toddlers under 5 years are recommended to be given powders with DHA. amul pro is available - you can try that. as far as weaning off the breast is concerned - that's a gradual process - pls start by stopping day feeds. the night feed should be the last one to go! tc and good luck

When she cries try to give her water it's not tat they always cry for milk. Slowly replace it with water coz m doing same; thing my baby is awake after every hr as she has associated sleep wid feeding. U can also rock her Pat her this way u can distract her and put her to bed again.give her full meal so she sleeps longer. It will take time so be patient. Take help of ur husband or any other family member if they can put the baby to sleep.
