Hello everyone! I previously wrote about weaning off breastfeeding. I've almost managed to wean, but the nighttime feedings just can't be eliminated. She refuses to drink water no matter how I offer it! What else can I give besides water? Some people give cow's milk or juice. What did you give? Please advise, my child is 1 year and 3 months old.

For a child aged 1.3 years, it is best to give plain water or diluted, unconcentrated juices. Cow's milk is not recommended at this age as it can be difficult for the baby's digestive system to process. If your child does not want to drink water, try offering them natural fruit juices diluted with water in a 1:1 ratio. You can also try giving them milkshakes made with skim milk or yogurt. It is important to monitor the child's reaction to new foods and drinks, and in case of any problems, consult a doctor.

Better nothing. Prepare some water for the night in case… maybe she will drink. It's good to feed her well an hour before sleep. At night, the organs should rest from juices, compotes, milk. It's better not to get them used to these at night.

Катя Та , It doesn't drink water at all specifically at night, but during the day it drinks as usual. I don't even know what to do anymore, at what age do they sleep without waking up?

жулдыз , Everyone does it differently. I stopped all feedings at 1.6 years and only gave water at night. But he doesn't always drink; sometimes he just opens his eyes, snorts, pushes the cup away, and goes to sleep on his own. Sometimes he even rolls over to the other side of the bed. My sister used to give compote at night, but then she got tired of heating it during the night. Of course, you could choose not to heat it, but then the container should not be plastic, as the drink spoils quickly in plastic. Try bathing him before sleep so that he gets tired out in the bath, feed him well after the bath, and see the result.

Juice isn't worth it, just like milk, all of this is quite harmful for the gastrointestinal tract and teeth. Giving a mix might be an option, but weaning off it later could also be a problem. I would feed at night so that everyone could sleep.

Kaleriya_Mayer , I would feed in the position for the second one. When I give birth, he will be 2 years old; I think by then he will quit on his own. But he doesn't take water at night.
