[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't introduce snacks before bed (I don't like food in the bedtime routine) but just try switching him to a before bedtime bottle. At 13 months he should be moving away from bottles/formula/breastmilk/nursing/etc anyway, and you might find that he sleeps through the night without the dream feed now, even though he didn't a couple months ago. I have a similar aged kid who wanted to eat at night as recently as 11 months and I've recently dropped him to just an evening nursing session. If he wakes up in the middle of the night and cries, he just gets cuddles. I've been surprised at how easily he's adapted to the change; he just goes right back to sleep with a hug now. Weirdly, dropping the morning nursing session also seems to have helped with 5AM wake ups. I have no idea why.[/quote]
