    Hey Grub

    Tara only has 2 bottles now and had done pretty much since she went on to cows milk.

    She has her dinner between 5pm-5.30pm and then will have a bottle about 6.30pm of around 240ml-260ml (depending on how much dinner she ate) and then into bed between 7pm-7.30pm. When she goes to bed we always offer her water and she will have a drink and then she goes down for the night and when she wakes up in the morning - between 9am-9.30am she will have a bottle of about 260ml-280ml. If she does wake in the night we will only offer her water to drink and 9 times out of 10 she refuses it and just goes back to sleep.

    Good idea bringing dinner time forward as this will give him enough time to digest food and then having more milk which will hopefully keep him going over night for you. Good luck..
