the first time I tried to cut the night milk for Marcus when he was 2.5months, time approaching my back-to-office after end of maternity leave...
in the first two days, he woke up(but didn't cry) with moving lips(99 said that meant he wanted to have milk) when it's milk time...I comforted/carried him for a while and he slept again...in the third night, he did not wake up at all!
but later, he started to vomit and drank little milk...so we gave him the mid-night milk again until last week...very often he was drinking milk while sleeping...
as it's 99 who fed Marcus mid-night milk and Marcus is Ok in daytime comsumption of milk and congee, when 99 went to Taiwan last week, I tried agin to cut it using the same method...also succeeded in the third night!
