My 2 year old dd is a solid eater who will pretty much eat anything and she LOVES her milk. I've been trying to get rid of the bedtime bottle (sippy, actually) to put an end to the 2am wet jammy problem, but not having much luck. Ped suggested mixing with water, and increasing water content and decreasing the total amount over a period of time to make the experience less palatable, but that has not helped. We're down only to 6 oz from 8oz, and 5oz of it is water with only 1 oz of milk, but she just guzzles that down and cries/begs/asks for more. This happened tonight after she had eaten a slice of whole wheat bread dipped in olive oil along with 30 black olives (not kidding - we were trying some Spanish olive oil and Turkish olives this weekend and now she's addicted). She's thrown a huge fit for more, and I feel really guilty not giving it to her but I know she'll be up in the middle of the night with wet jammies and cry for more milk to fall back asleep (I never give her milk when she has a nightwaking, although she regularly asks for it). Any suggestions would be much appreciated...
