My LO is 16 months and wakes early every day for a bottle. We started to let him CIO, but he will just moan/whinge for up to an hour. He can wake at 5.30, have a bottle then sleep again until up to 8.30am. I thought that toddlers who had a good balanced diet didn't need to wake for milk? He eats really well in the day, has 8oz at night and 8oz in the morning. Surely the fact that he goes back to sleep means he is still tired - a friend said her kids did the same but she would just get them up for the day and bring them downstairs for their bottle. I'm not ready to do this at 5.30am and I dont think he is either! Please help, this has been going on since he was 8 months old and now with #2 on the way and the fact that I work, I just would really like to sleep through myself!!
Thanks
(Can I just add that he isn't actually crying or screaming, it's loud whinging verging on crying - he just will not settle back)
