HELP!!! How did all you mommas wean your babes off night/midnight nursing? My daughter is 18 months old & is STILL getting up 2-3 times a night. I’m so exhausted all the time from being up with her and don’t know what to do anymore! 😫😴😴
@dancer3_08, yes. Right now she gets pediasure or water in a sippy she’ll drink it then go to sleep.
@km416, I offer her a milk bottle every night some nights she’ll take it and others she won’t . What do you offer the water in? Sippy cup?
Omg I remember when I was going thru this and thought I would never be able to do it. TBH is hard it won’t happen over night... the older they get the more they understand. My daughter is 2 now and I only breastfeed her once before she goes to bed. Which I don’t mind at all bc she goes straight to sleep and knows now not to expect anything else throughout the night and day. The only way I was able to achieve this ( yes! An achievement) lol.... I would just telll her in a very sweet way that Milkies were all done and mommy could just hug.... so we would just hug a lot and she would get sad but eventually she just got the point. And now she tries at time and I’ve just stayed strong and consistent that it’s all done... I have heard that if you offer water it does work. I do that now bc she just likes to drink water in general through the night... she’ll just ask for it now. Good luck!!
I started giving her other options than the boob at night. I give her water she drinks it then will lay back down
@km416, I’m going to try it thanks!
