Hi,

12 mnths - that's fantastic! Your baby is behaving pretty normally. So, if you are OK with it, there's not problem, despite what the health nurse says. However, if you do want to drop a feed you need to help her to learn another way to go back to sleep. Has she been sick? Have you been sick as well? It can sometimes take a little time - even after they *seem* well again, to regain their usual routine. Is she eating well during the day? Where does she sleep? You will probably need to enlist your partners help - often they will have more success in resettling the baby without a feed than you will. You might want to offer her a drink of water in a sippy cup at night - a cold can be drying on the throat. Try gently reassuring her it's Ok to go back to sleep. Patting her, or holding her hand til she drifts off can help.
Let us know how you go
Regards
Barb
