Gilera - i hope what i am sharing belowcomes in handy.
what i did was to feed my baby (when he was 5mths old) with cereal for 1 or 2 meals during the day to train him to swallow thicker stuff. Then i feed him (last feed of the day) at about 11pm. i mixed his milk with cereal. eg if bb take 8 scoops of milk i will put in 5 scoops (using milk spoon) of cereal to feed him. just ensure that the teats are big enough.
I wean my bb off night feed when he was 5 mths old. i ensure that he was eating well during the day ie every 4-5hours feed including take in more semi solid food then last feed mix cereal n milk as mentioned above.
if he wakes up in the middle of the night, i will give him pacifier n water. i did that for 1 week n he now can sleep thru-out the night without asking for milk. of coz there are times when he will wake up crying due to nightmares.
