I nurse my 13 month old to sleep for bedtime. I want to have a night away but unsure if she will be able to go to sleep without nursing. How did you all drop the bedtime session?

I started giving my daughter (14mo) whole milk at bedtime before her bath (mine was EBF as well) When I give her her bottle I’ve been decreasing the ounces of milk and adding water in place of that. We’re down to 50% milk and 50% water and will hopefully be dropping milk feeds all together, however my daughter no longer anticipates milk to help her sleep and doesn’t make the correlation that milk and sleep go together.

thanks for sharing!

of course!!

If it's just one night, you might just try it. I occasionally have to be gone during bedtime and my kids are always fine. They know whoever is putting them to bed doesn't have milk and they take it in stride. When I am there, they throw a huge fit if I try to skip milk :)

didn’t think that was possible! Thank you !!
