POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. Talk to your toddler – and gently tell them no. As your toddler gets older, it can be easier to explain why nighttime is for sleeping and not nursing. In fact, if your little one is at least 18 months old, you can gently but firmly tell them no (while, of course, staying in tune with and sensitive to their unique needs). You may wish to instead cuddle or rock him or her until they fall back asleep, or quietly explain something along the lines of “no nursing now, but we can when it’s morning time” – with consistency and patience, your toddler will begin to understand and eventually stop waking overnight to nurse.
