Hello Arijit, my son also drinks milk at night during sleep. BUT my son's pediatrician advised me to stop it as soon as possible. He told us that it is addiction, not hunger. He advised us to give our son son a filling but easily digestive dinner. And told us to give water... in stead of milk. But you know we parents can't be so strict very easily... !! So what l generally do l take one scoop ISOMIL soya milk powder and add water to it to make a bottle of milk. But l am not sure about cow milk at night...

hi Arijit82 ! at this age child should have two cups of milk. as per child's demand give it either during teh day and in the evening or in the evening and at night or u could even try giving milk during the day time and night.. u can definitely try giving cow's milk at night and if u feel it suits the baby.. u can continue giving it. as each child is different and so is their digestive system. so only after giving u can find out, whether it suits the baby or not.. however since it is lil heavy to digest, 11. 30pm would be too Late for the baby to have it. shift the dinner to 7. 30 pm. and milk time to 9 -9. 30 pm. hope this helps!
