Hi,
My son is 9 month old and is on the following diet pattern:
Morning : Cerelac coupled with milk
Noon : Rice with dal and vegetables
Evening : Fruits
Night : Rice with dal and vegetables
In between, he will have juices and other snacks. The issue is at night we have to feed him milk twice at 2 hour interval. He doesnot drink milk when he is awake.How do we prevent this. Further, he does not eat much at night. He has two cute tooth peeping up.Please advice suneetha replied. Hi all,

My son now 4 years old. he used to get up at night for his milk till he is 2 years. i dont think it is unusual.As far as i know from my family and friends all kids will get up for milk during night. I have seen my cousins kids waking up at night too.

I think this helps you.

One more thing i wanted to ask u if ucud tell me wat other snacks ur feeding him inbetween during the day....
I hope wefind a soln for baby waking up soon....
waitin ur reply 4 the above..... poonam replied. Hi There, I am currently reading this book called no cry sleep solution and one of the things it mentions is feeding your baby right in the day time. I have a 7 mo baby who does more or less the same thing. Reading your note, I identified hte problem right away, you need to make sure that your baby is drinking the milk during the day time. What the book says is that babies who wake at night for feeds is becasue they havent had their quota for the day and night time they try to make up for it. Somehow make him have milk in the day time, hopefully that will work. My daughter has now moved to one feed in the 2 times that she wakes up. Its definitly better but still needs improvement... good luck to you.
