My Doctors advice was not to engage in him but just give a bottle of cool not cold water in a bottle. We did and in the first week I finally was able to sleep all night long. He's 13months now. Sleeping in his own bed from 9:30 at night till about 7:30,8ish like clockwork. Of course he finds his sippy cup and wakes me right away for his morning drink.

In this order: 1.  Try just resettling and give her nothing but "blankie", pacifier, hugs, change nappy etc 2.  Give water in a bottle 3.  Then try milk once and give more solids the next day.  I ended up giving my daughter milk during the night - sometimes, it's just easier ... I agree with all of these responses and did try them all.

In this order:

1.  Try just resettling and give her nothing but "blankie", pacifier, hugs, change nappy etc

2.  Give water in a bottle

3.  Then try milk once and give more solids the next day.  I ended up giving my daughter milk during the night - sometimes, it's just easier and you need your sleep too.

If after giving more solids she still wakes, try the above things each time and be persistent!  You'll know when to give in.  Sometimes, she will even just have a little milk and go back off - which is a pest too because you'll feel you have to go and get the bottle out again so you know she wont have off milk in the bed in the morning!

Good Luck!  Hope she falls for the water routine - will make life easier all round!

Up her daytime bottles and solids, do not feed her at night. It is a BAD habit at this age. They all go through stages where they wake up, once a child sleeps through thte night without eating, you shouldn't go back to giving them a bottle b/c they think that is how ... http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419362 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419362 Sun, 17 Jun 2007 05:42:56 -0700 Re: sleeping problems lisasmith140483 hello love i had this same exact problem and i tried everything under the sun and eventually we had to just let her grow out of it and now she is almost 15 months and has started sleeping through, so good luck and remember just do what ever you have to do to get you through the night. much love http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419113 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419113 Sun, 17 Jun 2007 00:09:24 -0700 Re: sleeping problems Mandy460 I had the exact same problem. I also followed the Gina Ford Routine and she suggests to give the last milk feed at 10.30pm and then give the baby water at 3am instead of milk. I tried it and only had to do it 3 times and she gave.. i guess water wasnt worth wakeing up for! http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419102 http://www.minti.com/questions-and-answers/discussion/419057/sleeping-problems//#419102 Sat, 16 Jun 2007 23:53:30 -0700
