How can I get my 12 month old to sleep through the night?
He still wants a bottle 2 times a night. I've tried giving him water instead of milk to kind of trick him but he screams like a banshee and wakes the whole house. I've cut the bottles in half and last week I successfully used a sippy cup of half juice and water.
When he wakes up, he screams like he is scared or hurt. It's terrifying.When he's awake, he's fun and very laid back.
My teenage daughters slept through the night when they were 3 months and are still good sleepers. I'm dealing with something i've never had to before.
I need help! I need sleep.
Any tips?

make sure he gets plenty of exercise before he winds down for the night give him a bath then make sure he gets his tummy full before bed and tuck him in and go to sleep when he does that always helped me

He really is too old to be behaving this way. I don't think I've ever encountered this problem. If I were you I would just resolve myself to a week or two of sleepless nights and put a halt to this behavior. He is old enough to know what you are saying when you tell him. "No more bottles at night."
Sure, he'll be upset but he will thank you when he's older and doesn't have severe dental problems.

you should put your foot down. refuse to feed him in the middle of the night. nighttime is for sleeping. after a couple nights of letting him cry it out, it should stop and you'll feel better.
