Are your LOs still wanting milk in the night?

Is it just me or is anyone else still giving their LO milk in the night? If my LB wakes in the night sometimes he asks for milk. If I try offer water or suggest he just go back to sleep he'll just have a meltdown and because I don't want him to wake up the rest of the house and need to actually get some sleep myself I usually just give him the milk so that he settles back down quickly. Is this the wrong thing to do or will he eventually stop asking for it?

My little girl still asks for boob in the night atleast 3 times😭

You are definitely not the only one! My eldest had milk at night until he was 4, he just wouldn't stop screaming until he got his milk (in a bottle) 🙈 I don't really see what the problem is, my boy is now 10 as never had any problems because of it (like bad teeth). But my baby stopped taking milk at night before he turned two. Kids are different, I wouldn't worry. Milk is good for them at this age ☺️

mine is two and a half snd still has milk, i have no intention in stopping it comforts him

Thanks ladies. I think I have the tendency to over think these things... Guess I was worried that if I keep giving him a bottle of milk in the middle of the night that it might create some kind of dependency and he might think that he can't go to sleep without it and it then the longer I keep the habbit going the harder it will become to drop it...
